Author Harry Marlin met everything in life head on. This collection of his writing explores a lifetimes experiencesgrowing up in tiny Blanket, Texas, during the Great Depression; flying combat missions over Germany during World War II; and managing lifes perplexities. Called the Will Rogers of Central Texas, Marlin wrote a weekly column for the
Brownwood Bulletin
for eleven years.
Ill Get By
presents the first volume of compilations of his best stories taking a humorous look at a plethora of topics. The Barbecue Smokes, but the Customers Cant explores the ins and outs of the Texas tradition of barbecuing. In Where Summers Lovely Roses Still Bloom, Marlin reminisces about the dreadful summers spent picking cotton. The Place They Didnt Catch Clyde Barrow describes how the news of Bonnie and Clyde running rampant in 1934 took the edge off of an otherwise depressing existence. Colorful and witty,
Ill Get By
