Stanley James

A great first book - looking forward to more.

This is a warm, heartfelt, classic tale that can be read on numerous levels. Any product of catholic schools during the late 50's or early 60's will definately relate. A daring first venture of a story that deals with boyhood friendship, discovery, and personal revelations. It's entertaining from start to finish, thanks to the insight and conversation of the characters coupled with themes of friendship, family, and the building of character and self-esteem in a less than perfect world.

Very Entertaining

A sensational novel, while telling the story one life, Clyde Henry tells the story of our time. The author¿s voice is original, entertaining, and rings true.

A Story of A Bold Life and Spirit

This story is one that has needed to be told for decades. It is a story about all of us, and the choices we make. The story is daring and bold. Almost everyone can relate to the characters, if one is honest. If this book doesn't become a bestseller, there is something lacking in our sense of being.

A Great Story

It is absolutely the best book I've read in a long time. The back cover says it is a cross between Huckleberry Finn and One Flew Over the Cuckoo¿s Nest. I'd toss in a little Garrison Keillor for the Minnesota setting and you have a sense of what Stanley James is all about. While it is a fast read, it is incredibly deep, emotional and brilliantly written. At times the humor made me laugh and other times I was misty eyed. Simply said it is a great story.
