{"product_id":"a-few-good-stories-9798185616338","title":"A Few Good Stories","description":"Gene Cox spent 40 years as a TV newsman, trying to figure out what was going on. In his later years, he reached some conclusions that seemed obvious but for the most part remained unsaid. After hearing repeatedly from friends that he was a curmudgeon, Cox figured they were probably right. So he decided to write down some of his more obscure thoughts and let the chips do whatever the chips wanted to do. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Few Good Stories\u003c\/i\u003e offers a sampling of those obscure thoughts, along with longer essays about Cox's experiences growing up as a rebellious Preacher's Kid in Appalachia. Bible burnings, alligator wrestling and the dangerous allures of mattress sales are all fair game for his acerbic skepticism. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCox is also the author of several other nonfiction books, as well as five novels featuring Chandler Harris, a news anchor who solves murders when he's not reading a teleprompter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/flcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-1222155\"\u003eGene Cox\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/05\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798185616338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/flcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/flcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO026000\"\u003eMemoirs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54229387116841,"sku":"9798185616338","price":12.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0855\/5747\/7673\/files\/9798185616338.jpg?v=1790357447","url":"https:\/\/www.njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/products\/a-few-good-stories-9798185616338","provider":"New Jersey Corrections Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
