East Texas Author Publishes True Stories of His Youth

The Boys of the Bone Yard Slash: True Texas Tales, a new book by Ronald Armstrong, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Part adventure, part collection of short stories, all true, and a whole lotta fun, these are the tales of some of the people who lived along the Northeastern Texas Red River Chicota region of author Ronald Armstrong's 1970s youth.

There is more to these stories than just huntin' and fishin', although that is a great portion. There is humor, funny stories, a dash of tragedy, some love lost and found, some lost souls and some reborn. Throw in a monster or two, a good fight, a feud, and some good friends. How could you go wrong with true stories like these? The truth is always stranger than fiction and much more interesting. Take into consideration that this happened in the South, especially in Texas… then you have got to love it!

The Boys of the Bone Yard Slash: True Texas Tales is Armstrong's tribute to the people and the area he grew up loving.
