Short Stories From Texas And Beyond

This volume of short stories was written while Dr. Bob Pankey lived in Texas and the Midwest, particularly Illinois and Missouri. It speaks to those interested in sports, relationships, family and life in general in the mind of the author. Pankey grew up in Carbondale, a small college town in Southern Illinois. After having some successful years in sports, he went to the University of Missouri on an NCAA scholarship and played as a quarterback and defensive safety before graduating in 1973. These stories mainly reflect the life that Pankey experienced as a kid and family man. Pankey became a professor and served over 44 years in teaching while in Texas. He retired from Higher Education in 2017 and is now a full-time artist being represented in three art galleries throughout the Southwest.
