This book is an attempt to describe several of life experiences growing up along the banks of Spring Creek in Southeast Texas in the early to mid 1950s. It gives an abbreviated peek into life 'back in the day' before the explosive growth the area has experienced in the last relatively few years. Additionally, it offers special insight into the social and geographic aspects of the area, as it existed some 60+ years ago. Tall Tales will appeal to those familiar with the area and generally enrich the knowledge of every newcomer and history lover everywhere.
