Autorenporträt
As a child living in Union, Mississippi, Johnny Neil Smith knows first-hand about the escapades of Johnny B. Goode, because he experienced them. Although this book is fiction, the escapades are based on true accounts from his childhood. He is a retired educator and a historian. He is also the author of Hillcountry Warriors and Unconquered, as well as, with Susan Cruce Smith, Beyond His Mercy and Beyond the Storm, all from Sunstone Press.Johnny B. Goode is special because it is written for his children and grandchildren in an attempt to share with them and others the emotions from a time that is now long forgotten by most. Johnny Neil Smith is the storyteller, and his wife Susan is his editor. She, like him, is a retired educator.
