Annotation |
In this collection of more-or-less true stories, Jones (aka Biscuits) captures the magic of what it was like to grow up in West Texas in a simpler era when, with a little imagination, children could have the run of the world just beyond their back yard. Monte, usually accompanied by cousin Don, explored jungles, swam oceans, parachuted from fighter planes, and climbed skyscrapers-- all without leaving the confines of home. The character of Biscuits O'Bryan, Texas storyteller and cook for the I.O. Everybody Ranch, was created nearly twenty years ago by Monte Jones while he was rector of the Episcopal church in Sonora.
