Although Swift Montana Smith's book entitled READ MY SHORTS is mostly about Cowboy Action Shooting and his personal experiences within the sport, there are also stories about the Wild West included within. The book is split into two parts with the first part being short stories that can be read in less than an hour; having said that, the eighteen stories listed in Part One will take several hours to read. The addition of the longer, short story in Part Two of the book about a Wild West character called Edgar Windfal is a pleasant narrative and very interesting. While some of the stories appear to be actual experiences, many of them are fictional in nature and have a comedic tone and are meant to be amusing. A few of the stories are serious and emotional; including the last one entitled Edgar Windfal - The Lucky Stone. Overall, the book is easy to read and very enjoyable.

Following tragedy, Jeremiah leaves New Orleans and embarks on a frequently painful and action-filled journey, hoping to escape his sense of loss and recover his tormented soul. Journey takes Jeremiah through towns filled with interesting and sometimes humorous characters, who become a part of his awakening experience. There is a place from which we all have come. There is also a place to which we all will go. We cannot change where we came from, but we can influence where we go. The means to make this change is called “journey.” Many events and circumstances attempt to affect the outcome, but ultimately, we are responsible for our own journey. We travel the road, not knowing what lies before us, but we travel with the strength and spirit to write the ending. The goal is not the earth’s treasures. The goal is finding our meaning and giving back to the life we were given.

In this compelling collection, Dion shares intimate conversations with close friend Adam Jablin, reflecting on his rise to fame, battles with heroin addiction, a sixty-year marriage, and the influential figures in his music career, including Hank Williams and Bob Dylan. Featuring over 200 vibrant photos, this book captures not just the life of a music icon but six decades of rock and roll evolution.
