I received the book for Christmas, and as a matter of fact just last night started diving into it. I've heard others on this forum talk about it.

It's an excellent book. It's all written in the direct words of the people that the author interviewed... so there is plenty of colorful language. The importance of dogs in these peoples' lives is apparent. You'll enjoy it.

For a Florida Boy pick up "A Land Remembered" By Patrick D. Smith if you have never read it. It is similar but Fl Cracker style. A real good read!

I was told that The Big Thicket Legacy is no longer in print. The copy I was given for Christmas was purchased off Ebay. Not sure if it's new or used, but if used you can't tell.

I got my copy of Big THicket Legacy from barnes and nobel in the mall. They had a copy on the shelf. The book is an awsome read. I especially loved it when i found out that my family has some history in the book!

Hay Guys, I think this might be the place that has the taped oral tv intervirews fo Jude Hart about his parrents and blackmouth cur dogs, can somebody call them and ask them if there is a video availble or any archival tape of the actual interview at this college one could see or view somehow? Thanks for the link, i betting this is where the orginal tape is hidding out, i been asking the U of T for years and they act like i was mistaken and now i am betting i am, it must be here at North texas in file somewhere i am thinking.
