Paperback. Etat : Very Good. This book is an often hilarious story about three young boys in the 1960s trying to make their way in the world of the South. They get themselves into a lot of mishaps, some trouble, and even hunt ghosts in a dilapidated old mansion. They foil a crime in one of their many adventures. The book will have you reminiscing about your own childhood, when friends hung together, doing what kids do and reaping the consequences.The author bills this as fiction, but it reads like a series of connected essays that form a first person, non-fiction account of (possibly) his own childhood (albeit with a generous helping of fish story creative embellishment, and maybe a flat out whopper or two). His sense of place is strong, his voice is authentic. The first in the Southern Adventure Series, Me, Boo and the Goob is a little gem of a book destined to become a beloved classic and will one day be an Oscar-winning blockbuster of a movie, la Forrest Gump.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - I selected my first college by virtue of it's proximity to my duck hunting fields. I was promptly kicked out of that school, and enjoyed a brief and aborted naval career. After serving a year of exile at a junior college, I entered the University of Mississippi.

After publishing my first novel, Me, Boo and the Goob: A Southern Adventure, I continued my blogging in my own blog. Some of my blog entries are a mixture of truth, fiction, exaggerations and outright lies, but they present a reflection of the reality of a wonderful lifetime. While it can be said that not all of this stuff is completely true, it can not be said that any of it's spirit is false.At the suggestion of several readers, I have compiled my blog entries into a single volume. I hope they provoke in you thoughts and memories, smiles and laughter, and the occasional tear. In working on this volume, I have again been reminded of what a wonderful family I have, what an incredible life I have lived, and what amazing friends I have.Life has truly been good to me so far. …
