'Pon My Honor!

by Brenda Crissman Musick

Overview

Growing up in the mountains of Southwest Virginia in the 1950's and 60's was never dull. Most technical devices were still unheard of, so children made their own entertainment, using their imagination to come up with games. Some of those imaginations spawned actions not approved of by parents and led to instant consequences. Lessons were learned and learned well. The stories herein all come from the country side of life, from going to the drive-in movies to painting the back porch without permission, to going to the outhouse. If you grew up in the country, 'pon my honor, you will relate to them.

Editorial Reviews

"Colorful expressions have always been a characteristic of those who live in the rural Appalachians.
Oftentimes these utterances were in story-form but could also be presented as short descriptive verbosities, which described almost any of life's circumstances. 'Pon My Honor! rewardingly replenishes such expressions. Brenda's narratives refresh fond memories of rural living and she 'ain't just pullin' your leg' either."

Dr. Craig Ashbrook

"'Pon My Honor is delightful! Amidst some laughter and some tears, Musick's memories will entertain the readers! History has immeasurable value--both now and later-- including the homespun kind that the author recounts so well."
