Praise for More Tales Of My Southwest
“Ben Williams’ canvas is the Arizona-Mexico
borderlands region in the mid-20th century, a time when honest work
and good fun marked the warp and woof of daily life. From an unusual
experiment in cattle breeding to memorable fishing trips south of
the border, Williams has produced a delightful set of tales–tall
and true–that are richly entertaining and enlightening. In
doing so, Williams has established himself as a master of the Southwestern
vignette.”

“Storytelling may be an endangered art form in our information age, and
that’s
a shame. Attorney and former Douglas mayor Ben F. Williams, Jr. reminds us
of the old-fashioned charm of a good story, well told... Williams captures the
small
moments–childhood pranks and human foibles–that bring smiles of
recognition because they say something universal about the human condition.”
