Reviews

Times Picayune: A gem of a refreshing memoir.

Washington Post: Wow! What a wonderful childhood you had. Southern Boy is splendid reading, and it documents a time when it was safe enough to let children be free to explore the world around them, yet still being accountable for their actions and responsibility to contribute to the family. Thanks for the delightful read and best wishes to one who belonged to The Greatest Generation.

Endorsements

You have a wonderful writing style with your great, and sometimes slightly naughty, sense of humor, coupled with good Southern All-American morals and philosophies. Southern Boy is intriguing from start to finish. You told it like it was.

Congratulations upon having recorded a delightful lifestyle of the past and a region that was decimated by Katrina.
