Description
Book SynopsisJim Gramon, a native Texas storyteller, introduces you to some of his friends: John Henry Faulk, Cactus Pryor, Allen Damron, Mason Brewer, Mody Boatright, and Ben King Green.

Trade ReviewEverything about Texas makes for folklore: oil, cattle, timber, and the talent to spin a yarn. Folklore is a lively art form in this state of blue skies and white caliche. Jim Gramon has brought forth this wonderful collection of tall tales and legendary characters. I am honored to be one of his legends. -- Liz Carpenter
For a Texan who isnít me, Jim Gramon can really write! -- Kinky Friedman, Author,
