These are not your regular run of the mill stories about Fabled Galveston. Bill Cherry is Galveston's most noted story teller, spinning the Damon Runyon-esque tales of the Island's characters -- past and present.
They are the essays telling about how this seaport town sprouted up with society folk and poor folk and folk in the middle being surrounded by light vice -- gambling, prostitution, illegal liquor and wise guys running rampant.
That's where Bill Cherry was born in 1940, and why he heard the tales over and over from the elder generations who came before him.
These stories are all true, but until Bill wrote them, chances are they were unknown by most.
Readers of the first Bill Cherry's Galveston Memories were in the many thousands, and large numbers of fans visited Barnes and Noble stores throughout the state when Bill did book signings there.
