Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - TRAILS TO AND TALES OF SANDERSON, TEXAS. 40057BACK COVER TEXTPunch was sort of a mongrel. In his veins circulated the blood of all the races found along the Gulf Coast and the Mexican border. Like most mongrels, Punch was a survivor, smart, healthy, dependable and loyal.Punch was a bit short of six-feet tall, slim, always clean shaven, with graying brown hair and blue eyes. He walked with a limp. His left leg had been messed up in a bad fall with a cowpony some years back. The wreck pretty well retired him from working as a full-time cowhand.Punch had an endless supply of stories of the old days; but, no one knew where he actually came from or exactly how old he was. It was evident that he had been a cowboy, probably a lawman, a hunter, a trapper and perhaps, an outlaw. Punch was fluent in Spanish and French, knew some Apache, and most folks believed that he knew Indian sign language. He was known to be a talented tracker. Some claimed: 'He could track a bird through the air.'As little was known about Punch, folks tended to fill the gaps with guesses and rumors. Punch never agreed or disagreed with those who claimed to have some knowledge about his background. As long as the avoided insulting or demeaning him, Punch would smile, volunteer nothing and allow people to form their own opinions about his background.He was easy going and friendly to everyone; but, if you had the sense God gave a sheep, you would sense Punch was not a man to be trifled with. Given the right circumstances, Punch could be a dangerous person to cross.One of the stories associated with Punch claimed he had trailed, on foot, a horse-thief into Mexico and recovered a stolen horse. When people mentioned the story to Punch, he would nod his head in apparent agreement and tell them: 'Yup, you just about got it right.'Punch knew that they were wrong.Dead wrong. Only he knew what had happened and he wasn't talking.

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 314 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | This is a work manly of fiction. However, many of the stories and characters are drawn from real life. It is a about life in a small ranching and railroad town in Southwest Texas just east of the Big Bend area. For nine months in 1958 and 1959, I had the pleasure of living in Sanderson, Texas. It was a time between high school and college that I needed to decide what I wanted to try to do with my life. Although I was born in a small town, Ionia, Missouri; my family moved to Springfield, Missouri when I was less than one year old so I never experienced small town life. Sanderson, Texas provided that missing ingredient. Sanderson a small town, the County Seat for Terrill County, and at that time it was a busy, thriving, happy, community with almost every service that one needed with the exception of a Dental care and a Hospital. However, both were about an hour's drive away. The population appeared to be approximately one-half Anglo and one-half Latino. The cultures lived worked and in harmony. However socially each tended to keep to themselves and dating across ethnic lines was frowned on by both groups. The Turner Hotel Café was located in the center of town and was the social center for the Anglos. Along with the café the building housed the Post Office and a small grocery store. Town people and local ranchers were always present in the café, almost everyone was a colorful character and all had stories to tell and lies to swap. It was a treasure trove of material a writer could use. I spent many hours drinking coffee in the presence of those characters listening to stories involving Mountain Lions, snakes, top hands, good men, strong women, good horses and faithful dogs living in a harsh and unforgiving land. I believe that the people, their times, their stories, adventures, misadventure, lives and loves are worthy of being recorded and shared.
