Texas Stardust: Volume 2 Texas Dust Series

By Roy E. Peterson

About the Book: "Texas Stardust" is volume two of my Texas related poetry. Previously I published "Texas Trail Dust," containing 100 new tall tales and sweeping Texas stories featuring West Texas, campfire tales, cowboys, cowgirls, outlaws and modern Texas vistas and events. As in the first volume, "Texas Stardust" is a blend of fantasy and romance with facts, trivia, and historical accuracy. Whether you are a Texan by birth, a transplanted Texan needing a cultural guide, or ever fantasized about what goes on down here, both in the past and present, this book and the first one are for you. As with "Texas Trail Dust," "Texas Stardust," I assure you, is recommended by the Yellow Rose of Texas.About the Author: Roy E. Peterson was not born in Texas, but he got there as fast as he could. He made it by the eighth grade in 1956. The initial culture shock was palpable, but instantly was accepted because he made the JV football team and received a coveted monogrammed sweater as one of the few 8th graders to make the team. His high school history teacher was almost a fossil, but a strong disciplinarian. All Texas teachers had paddles made for them, ready for instant use as needed. The love of poetry comes from his mother, who was an English and Latin double major at Dakota Wesleyan University. Roy is an inveterate writer who fights for truth, historical appreciation, and moral values. In other words, the continuing true Texas culture invigorated by Christian principals, solid oilfield work ethic, and frontier justice. Roy Peterson is among the most educated men in America with three Master's Degrees and 200 post graduate (after the BA) hours.
