How
to Whittle Whimsies of the Yesterday Book 1 Basic Through Intermediate by Jack D. Jackson
The first projects in this book are the easy ones to get
you started in the right direction. Check out the chapter on knives and
sharpening then try whittling out a doughnut that could be worn as a
bracelet, a simple wooden heart, or maybe a wooden spoon or fork. Soon you
can whittle whatever you can imagine or you can stick with the fully
illustrated whimsies Jackson explains in this book. Which ever you choose,
Jackson’s artful instructions will have you whittling like an old-timer.

THE
RED ZONE Cars, Cows, and Coaches by Red McCombs
with Mickey Herskowitz
Big man, big voice, big boots, and big deals. Meet Red McCombs, who hasn't heard his given name, Billy Joe, since his mother called him that years ago. His is a story of "only in America," but with a Texas twist.
In the circles he travels, people know him only as Red. They also know him as cattle and oil baron, empire builder in cars and sports, investor in more than 200
companies, co-founder of what is now Clear Channel Communications, the world leader in radio stations and billboards.
He brought major league sports to San Antonio, owned the Spurs in the NBA, sold them, bought the Denver Nuggets, and later sold that team over the phone. Then he bought the Minnesota Vikings in a suspenseful bidding war won, in the first round, by author Tom Clancy.
The son of a car mechanic, he had the gift of words and ideas. In short order, he emerged as a millionaire before he was thirty, and one of the top three Ford dealers in America.
He was a driving force behind the HemisFair in San Antonio and in the construction of the Alamodome, a roofed stadium that was built before it had a tenant but whose debt was paid off before the doors opened.
