Train Tracks: American Stories for the Holidays
SGTBob avatar reviewed on + 156 more book reviews


This book was "fun" to read.
45 short stories (43 three pages or less, 2 over 10 pages each).
When I began reading the boo, I was getting the impression that Michael was a liberal thinker. His entire family consisted of Democrats. However, he is no, but he admits to having liberal thoughts early in life. He explains points where he began to seriously question the liberal way of thing. He is a Conservative.
He writes like he talks. Going off on tangents from time to time, but the book is a delightful read.
Reading these stories brought backs stories from my early days, reviving some good and bad memories of my youth.
I especially enjoyed the Dead Man Pants story.
Get this book if you can.
