He was the "Clown Prince of Luckenbach," an entertainer of star quality who refused for years to make money from his comic gifts. He was a rancher. A philosopher. An artist. A poet. A music man and inspiration for the hit song "Let's Go to Luckenbach, Texas." Hondo Crouch was a Texas folk hero. Before he died in 1976, Hondo helped stage at Luckenbach a series of zany happenings - from all-female chili cook-offs to Great World's Fairs - that become so popular the tiny town almost got trampled out of existence. But there was more to Hondo than spectacular spoofs. He had a gift for seeing past facades and into the true nature of the human comedy - and tragedy - that we all live inside our heats. His style ranged from lighthearted teasing to barbed satire, from pratfalls and pranks to rueful reflection. In Hondo, My Father Becky Crouch Patterson writes poignantly of the pain as well as the laughter of Hondo's life. Her book defies classification: a moving family story, a humorist's delight, a treasury of folklore. Above all, Hondo: My Father is the supremely human story of the funniest man in Texas.
