The Last Texas Big Shot by Tom Talley and Louis Buck

Based on events straight off the front pages of today's news, this decidedly Politically In-Correct fictional action adventure novel cuts a broad path across the world as a hard-headed Governor of Texas confronts a President of the United States who will not budge. As the pressure rises, accidents can, and do happen and the president even finds that he may have to fight a nuclear war … with Texas! 

Other nations see the internal squabbles as an opportunity to capitalize on the confusion while the CIA plays all sides against the middle. 

 This book gives you a taste of the way the interests of individuals, states, and national governments collide in today’s world of instant global communication and computer dependence. 

(Warning:  Contains Strong Language and Adult Situations-Violence...about the amount you would expect from a bunch of p*#&ed-off Texans.)

Family Traits by Scott Skipper

This work of fiction is a story of metamorphosis that explores, via the historical record, how three Englishmen from the seventeenth century lent their name to Indians, Africans, Americans, philanderers, outlaws, lawmen, revolutionaries, rustlers, planters, rebels, preachers and gin soaked Californians.

Although this is a work of fiction, most of the characters and events are taken from the historical record. Sometime in the middle of the 17th century three men named Skipper arrived in the new world. One married an Indian and was revered as a chief. He and his descendants absconded with servant girls, amassed large plantations, sued and were sued, rebelled against the Governor, rustled hogs, were hung as Tory sympathizers, fought in the Revolution, the War of 1812, the Civil War, and along the way committed a few acts of indiscretion. This is the first in a series of glimpses into the genealogy of this family and the motivation behind the real historical events.
