This is a rare collection of Song lyrics, Poems and Short Stories by Tony Stewart. Note from author: I began writing when I was about fourteen years of age, and have never really stopped. Many of these pieces have been written mainly as a freelance writer. These are writings from the heart, mind, and soul of life's experiences. Today, I'm really lucky to be alive. As a naive teenager, I nearly overdosed on drugs at the California Jam concert in 1974 that accommodated over 300,000 people. Many of my closest friends from the L.A. days were not so lucky and have died prematurely from unnatural causes. In 1976, I was nearly killed by serial killer Patrick Wayne Kearney, also known as the Trash Bag Murderer. He killed an estimated 32 to 43 people. In 1978, I was shot "Point blank" in the stomach with a .22 caliber derringer, but survived to write this book. Good or bad, politically correct or not; it is all here.

?From 1962 to 1977, Patrick Wayne Kearney was the most bizarre and deadliest murderer in California's history. Even though he appeared to be friendly on the surface, Kearney secretively manifested a severe homicidal - necrophilia behavior that cost over three dozen people their lives. Personally, I did not perceive any abnormal or peculiar characteristics in his persona; he appeared to be a calm, soft-spoken considerate man, but this compassion turned out to be pure deception to lure victims to their deaths. My brother and I were fortunate, we escaped." Serial Killer Patrick Kearney refused to attend parole hearings as long as relatives of murdered victims were present. He has never attended even one hearing to date. Relatives of victims speak out for the first time in this shocking story.

After years of research, these records were founded deep within unique foreign language of German/French historical archives.

This genre of fine art is a parody depicting scenes and events of the 1920 s - 1930 s bank-robbing era to La Cosa Nostra- Mafia days. All pictures are self-fashioned through the eyes and imagination of the author who reconstructs and revisit gangsters of the early nineteen hundreds straight from crime annals of American history.

Every picture is worth more than a thousand words in these historic moments of time.

Note: This particular style of artwork pertains to true-to-life subjects, and the realistic events.
