{"product_id":"9781987926026","title":"Facts and Fantasies Volume 3: A Collection of Short Stories","description":"This is the third of four volumes of delightful tales, every one written and illustrated by the author himself. The stories vary in length. They also vary in the proportion of imagination and actuality. All were inspired by real people and events sharply recalled by Dr Cox as he reflected upon his past eighty years. If you enjoy these tales, you will enjoy the author's first full length novel Once Upon A Term published this year and available as a Kindle Edition. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eYou can't help getting older but you don't have to get old\u003c\/i\u003e - George Burns \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cfont color=\"blue\"\u003eThe four stories in this volume: \u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1.
