Just leave it up to Jerry to entertain you with his stark and wholesome characters. This book is masterfully written by a real craftsman. (Harlan Medlam and his naps. What a bum. LOL. Ardon Vastou reveals the Kaw river as both a giver and taker. The wasps in the outhouse tale was by far the most hilarious of them all). Fans of humor will no doubt enjoy these 45 lovely short story gems. Yes, I truly believe this book can make a fence post giggle too. Just Folks: Earthy Tales from the Prairie Heartland
Wonderful 'Down Home' Stories
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Humor, Nostalgia, Colorful Characters, and Wonderful Short Stories from a Grand Story Teller. If you like all of the above, you'll probably like this book. And if you've ever spent any time at all in any small town in America, you'll probably relate very easily to some of Mr. Engler's tales. The fictional town in this book - Kawtown - is a marvelous place to visit and get acquainted with the author's many colorful characters. I especially liked his stories revolving around one of Kawtown's historic landmarks - The Deerhead Tavern. Lots of interesting things happen in and around The Deerhead almost every day, as they often do in the local meeting place in many a small town all across the land. If you like good stories and interesting characters, you'll probably like this book!
