Prison Dogs chronicles the real life story of a man who had lost his way in life,…mehr

Autorenporträt
Stafford's Scottish mother taught her children that there were four great professions in this world: the ministry, education, the military, and medicine. All were great, in her estimation, because they served their fellowman. The author considered those four, tossed out the ministry because he thought preachers have any fun. Blood made his toes twitch so medicine and undertaking were eliminated. That left two. He served for over thirty years in the army retiring as a colonel. His employer sent him overseas thirteen times. To his credit the officer and a gentleman never caused an international incident. His love, however, was the classroom where he learned he could have been a minister or a stand-up comedian. He taught undergraduates public speaking, communications, and English. His happiest days were at Tuskegee University waiting to be discovered by MGM . Today you can find him behind his computer; sweating at the gym; swearing on the golf course; or playing duplicate bridge throughout the South. His favorite old sayings are: "Slow and Steady Wins the Race" and "He Who Hesitates is Lost".
