Sobre IBD

Should an aging sportswriter accept $60,000 as dowry to wed a lovely Asian weightlifter? Will a 108-year-old Japanese woman end it all by flying away with a flock of cranes? As Feds and Mafia close in, why is Jack Ruby's driver playing 'Aint Misbehavin' on his clarinet? These eleven stories comprise Kelso at his best. Ranging across the USA and Asia, from WWII to this century, the stories reflect the author's forays as folksinger, soldier, teacher, and journalist. 'Enduring humor, high seriousness, and intelligence. Kelso writes with mastery of the craft.' -- Kevin Dobbs, Dean, Languages and Fine Arts, Yuba College, California 'Kelso is a terrific yarn spinner.' -- Mike Lambert, editor, Powerlifting USA
