About the Book:This is a great autobiography of an interesting man who was there from the beginning of Arizona state. Not just a biography, but a history of Cochise County as well. To reiterate the newspaper clipping (pictured, but not included in this listing since I found it on the internet): BISBEE, Ariz - Walter Swan, a plasterer-turned-author who founded the One Bookstore to sell one book, a compilation of stories about his life on a ranch during the Depression, died on Sunday of cancer. He was 78.His book, "Me n' Henry" consists of stories he told his eight children about life with his older brother. It includes such wisdom as: "No matter how bad a situation gets, dont ever five up. Just try that much harder."After his book was rejected by several publishers, he and his wife, Delores, bought a computer and published it themselves in 1988, selling more than 24,000 copies at the One Bookstore.The couple turned out other collections of stories and recipies. Rather than change the character of their One Bookstore, they sold them in another shop...The Other Bookstore.
