I'm a Memphian
I write about Memphis. Dan Conaway writes about Memphis. There s many a day I read Dan s columns and think, Damn, I wish I had written that. He s as original as the city he has long called home, and as lively, too. If you love words and/or Memphis, you should definitely own this book. --Geoff Calkins, Columnist, The Commercial AppealDan Conaway's unique style serves up a filling plate of introspection with a goodly amount of  entertainment on the side. I have enjoyed his weekly rants for several years. His humorous walks down memory lane serve as parables that probe just enough of our foibles to help us each reach out and become a better neighbor. Enjoy this slice of our city. --A C Wharton, Jr., Mayor, City of MemphisValues can be taught, caught or fought. With Memphis as his canvas, Dan Conaway paints word pictures of life that richly express the values that have formed his view of the world. Revealing in themselves, Dan s pictures also inspire each of us to look at our own values and hopes. --The Rt. Rev. Don E. Johnson, Episcopal Bishop of West Tennessee
