Moon Over The Western Bridge is the story of a sharp young Chicago ad man, Justin Pratt who is sent on an unlikely journey to find the composer and producer of a song written over fifty years ago by Daniel Webster "Griff" McGraw. McGraw has settled into the life of a recluse in a cabin at the foothills of the Smoky Mountains. Pratt's firm needs the song, Moon Over The Western Bridge for a prominent client to use in a commercial. At first, the assignment seems routine, find out who owns the rights to an old song, have the lawyers prepare the standard release, pay the usual fee and get onto the next project. Pratt soon finds out, however, that finding this song writer is going to be a lot more complicated than he could have ever imagined. And when Justin's boss finds out where he is headed, he finds him some company business that must be cleaned up along the way. And by the way, he won't be flying, he'll be driving. He has preconceived notions about the people he is scheduled to meet, none of which turn out to be correct. Some people he didn't expect to meet at all end up having more influence on him than those he did. From a one-night stand to a long lost aunt, Justin has to wonder what surprises his eventual meeting with McGraw will hold. The people that Pratt encounters along the way help shape his character as he prepares for his climactic encounter with Griff. The negotiations for the song rights end up revealing a lot about who Justin was and who he had become during his journey. The destinations that Justin land in turn out to be characters themselves, from Clifty Falls State Park in southern Indiana to the Dollywood Theme Park to the climatic grandeur awaiting at the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains. Pratt's eventual antagonist, McGraw proves himself to be enigmatic. He's been a songwriter, producer, military man and mountain man.

Re-Edited and with Additional Stories: Enjoy the many short stories of a very active and creative person's adventures and experiences. You will dip into the rural and small town life of the Mid-South, travel through sometimes embarrassing high school and college life, join an Army lieutenant in Korea at the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis followed by a career with IBM plus consulting and teaching, and see America through his eyes.Stories have a beginning, a middle, and an end; well sometimes they have an ending. Stories have been used to inform, influence, encourage, entertain, and even to threaten. I have been transported through both time and space by listening to stories told by the generations that came before me.Am I a Story Teller, a Jokester, a Prevaricator, a Purveyor of Myths, or what? Well, I have told my share of jokes, I have probably told a few lies in my lifetime, and perhaps I have helped in the perpetuation of myths, but I have also been a fairly good story teller. It is in that vein that I have launched this effort to record a number of the stories of my life and times.The earliest of these stories from the early Twentieth Century are about my grandparents, but most of them begin a couple of decades later; stories of my active childhood, animals, friends, dates, and adventures.There are high school, college, Scouting, Army, and career experiences. The final chapter is about our Russian daughter who inspired me to write this book. I trust that you will enjoy this trip through my life.Stories really are The Fabric of Life
