Bud Scranton - Boot Tracks, There and Back Review

Bud Scranton writes from a position of having lived through the tough times, through the changes, and over the long hard roads of history in the making.
This story of his life written to share family history with his grandchildren will bring tears, laughter and understanding to those who read it.
Scranton, a survivor of the '30's dust bowl days, details his efforts to bring sheep to Colorado.
Walking a path of determination he wore the soles off many pair of boots to make it there and back, again and again.
Scranton's dedication to life in southeastern Colorado, his family and neighbors is evident in his book.
Weather darkened skin, wrinkled by the sun surrounds clear blue eyes when he speaks to you directly, sharing his memories of life on the prairies of Colorado.
He often speaks of the hard work he accomplished in his younger days and how much he appreciates the distance he's traveled.
A rags to riches story, as some may say, have brought him to where he now lives in a small country home that overlooks a lifetime of achievement.
This long-time resident of Prowers County, near Lamar, Colorado will gladly share the accomplishments of his siblings, his children or grandchildren, if you stop for a moment to visit with him at one of his many "haunts" around town.
Whether he's working the fields with one of his children or sitting at a coffee shop visiting with "the farmers" from near his home, Bud Scranton is always the same; just a dedicated man remembering the past and working for a better tomorrow.
