Tales From The Storyboard Tom Bernstein

In the tradition of Little Big Man and Forrest Gump, Tales From The Storyboard is the vernacular narration of the long and eventful life of Rayford Hollis. As a ranch cook, army cook, restaurant chef and owner of his own café, Rayford takes the reader on a memorable journey to Cuba with Roosevelt's Rough Riders, and to all the principal cities of Europe with Buffalo Bill's Wild West. He leads you back to America's southern border with Black Jack Pershing during the Mexican Revolution, and then on with Pershing to war-torn France. He tells of the Chicago speakeasies of prohibition, the Jim Crow south, Hollywood's golden era, and Native American struggles in the west. Tales From The Storyboard is a larger-than-life saga of war and peace, of romance and loss, of tragedy and intrigue told in lively, energetic episodes.
