About the Book:
In his debut memoir The Reckon Yard, social media influencer and consummate car guy, Jerry Wayne Longmire drives readers down the dirt roads of his childhood in the piney woods of East Texas and through his rough-and-tumble coming of age in Houston, Colorado, the Midwest and the oil fields of the Gulf.
A rich, captivating and intensely vulnerable portrait told from behind the wheel of the cars that shaped him, Longmire seeks to find himself amidst the collapse of a small junkyard paradise, changing oil markets, family trauma, and the conflicts between his blue-collar skills and his passion for stand-up comedy. The Reckon Yard shows readers that hope is never as elusive as it seems, that family can overcome great struggle, and that “good ol boys” can get back to being good to the people around them.
