Produktbeschreibung
Author C. Anthony Sherman tells the story of two young boys from different worlds who form an unbreakable bond in his new book, "The Promise at Koonville." Robert and Buddy meet in the back woods of Koonville in a time when the racial climate separated whites and blacks, yet their brief encounter forms the basis of a lifelong friendship based on a childhood promise. The book carries the reader on a journey through the lives of these two friends and the life choices that set them on different courses-one to the battlefield of Vietnam and the other in pursuit of a career in the field of law. When Buddy learns that Robert has been wounded in the war, his quest to locate his friend and come to his aid, meets with a number of obstacles, but he is driven to keep the promise he made to his childhood friend. In his must-read book, Sherman takes us back to an era when "a man's word was his bond" and shows the lengths one man will go to honor the love and commitment that defines the word "friend."

Autorenporträt
C. Anthony Sherman, a native Texan, born in Crockett, is also known as Tony Sherman, the artist and sculptor. He taught himself to write while serving in the U.S. Air Force. As a B-52 bomber crew chief, he wrote for several military publications while flying around the world. He continued to write on a part-time basis as a hobby until 1988, when he studied creative writing at LSU in Lafayette, Louisiana. Writing became his creative passion since he met with the famed writer Alex Haley, author of Roots. During the brief encounter they had, Mr. Haley told him to never stop writing. To date, Tony has completed three novels and has nearly completed two screenplays for film, to be released in 2016. Tony writes as if he has familiarity with his stories, which is why they are so warm, inviting, and detailed with his characters.
