Headstone

More about the book

Part truth and part fiction, HEADSTONE is the story of author Brian James' nontraditional relationship with his father. Born in 1915, Brian's father majored in mischief at an early age. In this book, he relives his father's antics - from stealing from a pushcart vendor when he was just a young boy to drawing outlandish cartoons on the backsides of local politicians' signs. The lives of gamblers and gangsters, special agents and inspectors are interwoven in a side-splitting tale of the life and times of a guy named Junior. In HEADSTONE, the author shares well-varnished memories of a man he will always love and who forever will be his hero.
