Description
I and ClaudieI and Claudie is a delightful and captivating novel about a couple of bungling but good hearted con men who (barely) make their way across Texas over a two year period in the 1930s. Their adventures, Anderson said, were "in no sense autobiographical, but sometimes I am sorry they are not." The charming con men outwit lumbermen, oil men, and others, but are sometimes the victims themselves. Clint Hightower (the "I" in the title) is a smooth talking
I and Claudie is a delightful and captivating novel about a couple of bungling but good-hearted con men who (barely) make their way across Texas over a two-year period in the 1930s. Their adventures, Anderson said, were "in no sense autobiographical, but sometimes I am sorry they are not." The charming con men outwit lumbermen, oil men, and others, but are sometimes the victims themselves. Clint Hightower (the "I" in the title) is a smooth- talking maker of deals; Claudie Hughes, all 6'6 of him, is his slower-of-mind sidekick who does all the real work and, often unwittingly, saves the day. The reader is both entertained and informed by the book. We learn much about Texas and Texans of the period. We learn about hurricanes along the coast, oil leasing and lumbering in East Texas, buried treasure in West Texas, the state fair in Dallas, the stockyards in Forth Worth, farming along the Brazos River, and more. The stories that make up the novel have been compared in style to O. Henry's classic tales. Several of them appeared in the venerable Atlantic Monthly before the book was published in 1951. One of A.C. Green's all time top 50 I and Claudie is a delightful book. One or two latter-day critics have termed it too ingenuous for our sophisticated age. Don't believe them. Clint Hightower would be right at home today in many an executive suite, with Claudie . . . waiting to take the fall for him.-- A. C. Greene, The Fifty Best Books on TexasBinding Type: Paperback

super strong hold!
Style: MagSafe Phone Holder
super easy to set up, holds really tight, and does little to no movement when hitting bumps. magnet is strong enough to keep the phone in place while driving, but weak enough to not feel like you're ripping the mount off the dash. i will say as a warning, find your spot, double check all the things around that might move so you won't impede it (my shifter got close) and dry fit it to make sure any position you will want it in won't be an issue there. i have a similar one in my truck and made the mistake of putting the mount in a spot that doesn't let the phone go where i want it when turned sideways. as carpenters say "measure twice, cut once..."

Perfect for on the go use.
The Lisen Wireless charger is perfect for on the go pop in and pop out when needed. It’s very functional and only needs one hand use to lock or unlock. It fits perfectly on the air vent. It’s look sleek and well made. The charging speed may be slow unfortunately.
