Travel back with Jan to a simpler time and place in the mountains of southwestern New Mexico to Mogollon, now a near ghost town since World War II. In reviewing this collection, Tom Hester (grazer of history and good writing) wrote: \"Mogollon, New Mexico, and its talented memoirist Jan Sherman offer us literary gold more valuable than the metal stuff. Abandoned mine tunnels, ownerless burros, overnight fishing trips, neighborhood hermits, school bus commutes that could sum to transcontinental trips, cowboy pranks, and hypnotized hens are recreated with wit dryer than the Chihuahuan Desert.\" In addition to Jan Sherman's memorable stories, the book includes dozens of historic photos as well as a Mogollon map, original art by artist M. Fred Barraza, and literary contributions by Jeff Ray, Richard Mahler, and Bob and Vicki Moore.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charlie McKee, Jan Sherman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peckin' Order Press LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/10\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.24w x 0.34d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692964439\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt 95 years young, Jan Heyne Sherman resides in Silver City, New Mexico.
