Come sit with me and let me share some tales about: Five boys who find a lost pony and learn a lesson from an artist who paints naked women; A sheriff who tries to save a boy's soul before he hangs him; A southern aristocrat whose pet owl flew freely through his antebellum mansion; A turkey buzzard named "Damnit" who makes a great contribution to science; The earth's last giant in whose hair and beard live orphaned and homeless animals; A mentally ill and dangerous boy who witnessed a terrifying scene during the Civil War; A spirit who quotes scripture and warns a young girl against impending danger; And about bootleggers, cock fighters, rattlesnakes, a gentleman Devil, a hill lady of ill-fame, and other animals and humans well worth knowing.
These stories span more than two hundred years in the South. They tell of: a Confederate Captain whose son is killed by his side in battle; a white woman searching for her black lover on the battlefield in Nashville; a slave who is almost killed at birth by her mother; a woman captured by Indians; two boys who hunt a 'man-killer' bear; a former slave and former Confederate Colonel riding in a wagon, drinking hard-cider and talking about the past; a fox hunter converted by the conquest of a great hound; and others that tell of good people and of some who are just awful. Most of all, these stories are about all kinds of love.
