Pretty Boy Floyd's Clarinet and Other Tall Tales of Oklahoma

Award-winning author Jack Shakely presents a collection of nineteen stories and essays. Although many are set in or around Oklahoma, this collection presents a nostalgic look at America - and Americana - through the decades. From the Civil War to the Iraq War, from Creek Indians to young orphans from New York City, these tall tales, fact-based anecdotes, and real life memoirs present a time capsule of the history of the United States.
