This self-proclaimed redneck will warm your heart, tickle your funny bone, and moisten your tear ducts as you turn the pages. From the back woods of rural America comes an honest and refreshing read. The short stories and poems are gentle reminders that there are heroes among us whom we often overlook and fail to appreciate until they are absent from our lives. Take a down-home look at our unsung heroes who come from all walks of life. Read tributes to farmers, soldiers, children, grandparents, sportsmen, buddies, and all of those who fall somewhere in the middle and have made a difference in our lives. This collection drives home the fact that we live in the greatest country in the world and we are blessed to call ourselves Americans.
