As most of you know, the annual St. Petersburg Antiquarain Book Fair was this past weekend and we at Yeoman's were on hand with a special selection of our finest rare books and documents. This show in St. Pete continues to prove itself as a great weekend as well as THE best show of the year for us. Sarah and the gang at Lighthouse Books do a fabulous job and did not disappoint this year.

Am I a bookman or a book dealer??? The question was posed to me over the holiday and I must confess that it caught me a little off guard.

This charming look inside the farther reaches of the storyteller's mind is undoubtedly one of the most under-appreciated books to come out of Nashville in years. You've got original stories (and some pretty darn good ones) by a few legends in this town - Kris Kristofferson, Tom T. Hall, Charlie Daniels, Robbie Fulks and Hal Ketchum to name a few. The book features a foreword by Vince Gill and touts endorsements from Bill Anderson and B.B. King!
