Recorded for the first time ever, here are ten of the wise and witty spoken word presentations at the 90th annual meeting of the legendary Texas Folklore Society featuring a special tribute to teacher, writer, and Pecos cowboy Paul Patterson by Elmer Kelton and two others. Subjects include early radio DJs, peddlers, cow chips, funeral homes, crazy women in the rafters, and much more.
You don't need to be Texan to enjoy this nostalgic, often funny, often poignant storytelling.
Music by the East Texas String Ensemble.
Winner of a Violet Crown Book Award from the Writers' League of Texas and introduced by singer/songwriter/folklorist Michael Martin Murphey.
