Biographie de l'auteur

Charles Kelley was born in the Tennessee foothills of the Great Smokey Mountains. In his younger years, he knew the hard backbreaking work required of the whole family to make their burley tobacco producing farm grind out the just get by living of most of the family owned farms of the era. As a teenager, he looked to the future and entered a diesel engineering school to prepare himself for what turned out to be a very rewarding, as well as exciting twenty-eight year career in the United States Coast Guard and retiring as a Chief Warrant Officer, Grade W-4.

David told him that he would rather read a storyteller's work anytime than to have to have a dictionary to try to find out what some literary giant was trying to get across to the reader. Mr. Kelley says some of his fondest memories will always be of his Cherokee heritage in those beloved Great Smokey foothills.

Charles Kelley says that after you travel around the world a few times and really get to see it for what it is outside the United States, it's no wonder you feel like getting on your
