Know about the book -

Tickling Catfish is written by Jerry Craven and published by Texas A&M University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0890967288 (ISBN 10) and 9780890967287 (ISBN 13).

In his art of telling stories, Craven balances timing, rhythm, style, and content. His style is at once elegant and simple, a mixture of up-tempo phrasing and brief story lines that flow naturally to one of three conclusions: punchline, moral, or wish. The stories share observations on customs, language, home, and human nature and serve as a hedge against parochialism, even when focusing on snipe hunts, armadillo grabs, and hog boxing.
