About this title

About the Author

Jason Stuart grew up eating squirrel meat and moon pies. He once jumped over a rattlesnake while winning a foot-race against a giant. He picked peas, potatoes and corn by the bushel every morning most of the summers of his young life and spent the rest of the afternoon shucking and shelling. He loaded chemical fertilizer for a while until his foot turned yellow and he quit. He’s driven a truck, washed dishes, tended bar, cleaned up bars, poured concrete, built houses, run a movie house, served process, worked cattle, and, at times, lived in his truck. He once had to arbitrate a gunfight regarding ownership of a chainsaw during the aftermath of a hurricane. He lives near the beach in Mississippi, rides a motorcycle, and roots for the Gators.
