When does a boy become a man? When does he cross that invisible line where marbles and tops and playlike don't matter anymore? Is it when he begins to imagine what it would be like to wake up next to the girl that lives inside his soul? Is it when he buries his best friend wearin' a coat still stained with that friend's blood? Is it when he knows in his heart of hearts he could kill a man and not even think twice about it? These are the questions that rage in young Crawford Cashion's mind as he rides to his destiny in the turbulent years of the Range Wars in southwest Texas.

Stan Cosby is truly a son of the "High Lonesome." Born in Canyon, Texas raised in Amarillo, Texas, the capital of the High Plains, he is a Pastor by vocation and thus, a writer and a story-teller by calling. Sermons, poems, essays, short stories, theological treatises, family histories - he has written them all. Pastor Cosby (or Pastor Papa as his grandkids call him) lives with his wife Susan on the "Old Home Place," a Centennial Farm of his wife's family near Hedley, Texas. HIGH LONESOME is his fourth book to be published.
