Book Cover & Preview Text
Turkey hunters have a bad reputation for being rude, crude, and sociably unacceptable. Part of that perception may be attributed to their misunderstanding and lack of appreciation of poetry. I’ve observed this animosity between rednecks and prose of all sorts; and I believe it begins in high school. But how did this “reading unappreciation” come about? Let’s look back at the history of prose and poetry as seen by an ol’ turkey hunter.

About the Book
You will enjoy the stories you are about to read.....David Kerr has a wholesome, mischievous humor with a creative insight reminiscent of those early homemade philosophers........I'm sure that Will Rogers, Mark Twain, and other names are familiar to you still. DuWayne Furman, Ph.D. Human Growth and Development University of Nebraska "(More Tales of the Strange and Wonderful) cannot really be placed in any particular genre. it is a fascinating combination of local folklore, true stories (many from David's youth in Huntsville), interspersed with Bible stories and parables told and spun from a slightly different perspective.

About the Author
David Kerr, The Ol' Turkey Hunter, is a lifelong resident of west central Illinois. He bought a farm at age 24. This, ironically, took him off the farm and into many other jobs to help make the farm payments. This diversity of experiences has culminated in writing Tales of the Strange and Wonderful and this book, the second in a series, More Tales of the Strange and Wonderful.
