Billy Bob Joe Block (first introduced in Spady's memoir, Growing Up Eldon) and his cousins, along with a motley group of associates, pursue their animal-control/security-consulting/reality-show-production businesses, accidently encountering a number of exciting and often deadly run-ins with loan sharks, drug cartels, and mob families. When the 'gators are not trying to eat them, drug runners and mob families are attempting to exact revenge on "the Gang" for supposed, and even actual, interference with their legally questionable endeavors. Bumbling assassins, inept mob soldiers, and various animal pests lead Billy Bob and his cohorts into near- and not-so-near-death experiences, generating lots of belly laughs for the reader along the way. Billy Bob and his Gang's on-again, off-again relationship with the FBI and the DEA are hilarious to everyone-except certain agents of said organizations. Be prepared for a wild ride!

Patton: A Genius for War is a full-fledged portrait of an extraordinary American that reveals the complex and contradictory personality that lay behind the swashbuckling and brash facade. According to Publishers Weekly, the result is "a major biography of a major American military figure." "This massive work is biography at its very best. Literate and meaty, incisive and balanced, detailed without being pedantic. Mr. D'Este's Patton takes its rightful place as the definitive biography of this American warrior." --Calvin L. Christman, Dallas Morning News "D'Este tells this story well, and gives us a new understanding of this great and troubled man."-The Wall Street Journal "An instant classic." --Douglas Brinkley, director, Eisenhower Center
