Paul Neel Jr., whose varied career includes enlisting in the U.S. Navy, working as a commercial diver in the oil fields of the Gulf of Mexico, and finally working for the Missouri Department of Corrections for 28 years before retiring, has completed his new book, "Peanuts of the Ozark Hills": a moving series that follows one young boy's childhood in the Ozark Mountains as he navigates growing up in the world around him.
"'Peanuts of the Ozark Hills' is a collection of true stories about a boy who had the nickname Peanuts," writes Neel. "The Ozark Hills is the region of Missouri where he was born and raised in the early 1930s. The stories in this book are actual things and experiences that took place in Peanuts's life.
"This book will take you back to a simpler time and a simpler way of life in the Ozark Hills. Reading of his adventures may even give you a chuckle or two, but it is not meant to give young people any ideas. But they will truly enjoy it, or so his grandson says."
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Paul Neel Jr's new book is a stirring journey that explores a bygone era, and the valuable lessons Peanut learns from those around him. Set against the backdrop of the beautiful Ozark Hills, this character-driven tale combines the author's wisdom with a healthy dose of humor that is sure to remain with readers long after its conclusion.
Readers can purchase "Peanuts of the Ozark Hills" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes & Noble.
