Product Description
by R. K. Lindsey Jr. (Author)
Reflections of a Wanna B Cowboy is the author's fifth book. Reflections is essentially Lindsey's autobiography written in "talk story" format. Talking story is a way of communicating among locals in the islands. Lindsey and his grandson Samuel Kamaile are its main characters. Its basic message is, we are global citizens. Author's Statement Reflections of a Wanna B Cowboy is my personal life story. Reflections is a story about an unfulfilled dream. I wanted so much as a kid to be a cowboy on the Parker Ranch when I became a man-a dream I dreamed countless times. But as oft happens to so many of us, this life force called destiny intervened and altered my plan. With my oldest grandson Samuel's help as facilitator, in this autobiography of sixty snippets, I tell my story for our grandsons to remember their Tutu (grandma) and me by. Reflections has a larger message: we are citizens of the world.
Author Biography
Robert K. Lindsey, Jr. was raised on Hawai'I's biggest island. In Waimea, a picturesque cattle town nestled at the foothills of the Kohala Mountain. Some liken Waimea's green meadows, floating mists and rolling hills to vistas they've seen in the uplands of Scotland or New Zealand's North Island.
