Description

Before video games and scheduled playdates, before the world got smaller and summers got shorter, there was Cedar Hill, Texas – and four brothers with thirty acres, a barn, a pond, and absolutely no shortage of bad ideas.** Growing up in a small farm town outside Dallas in the 1950s and early 1960s, four brothers lived the kind of childhood that America has largely forgotten – and that those who lived it have never quite gotten over. In *Cedar Hill Boys*, Cal Brannigan captures that world with warmth, precision, and a dry Texas humor that never oversells the moment. These are true stories: of snake hatbands crafted and sold from the fields behind the house; of a purse left by the road on a string, yanked away from whoever reached for it; of a tractor tire ridden joyfully into a barbed wire fence; of a mother who settled the question of a snake in a tree trunk with a double-barrel shotgun and no particular hesitation. They are also stories of work – loading hay bales in the summer heat, working the family garden row by row, raising an FFA calf with pride and releasing it with understanding. Stories of the maid’s children coming to play, of fishing the pond on slow afternoons, of finally climbing the forbidden attic ladder and finding collector paintings left behind by a previous owner. And at the center of it all: a rope swing over still water, four brothers silhouetted against a Texas dawn, and a childhood that was hard and joyful and real. **Cedar Hill Boys is a love letter to a vanishing America – and to the land, the family, and the long summers that made it.** LangueenVersionBrochéDate de sortie initiale15 juin 2026Nombre de pages64
