While I believe it to be his autobiography Arlie writes like he lived; from place to place.
If you are a Texas native the book is much better. An outsider would get only some good advice from this book.
The early chapter has entertaining east Texas stories. The second chapter delivers bits about country music stars he may or may not have known.
Chapters 3 & 4 give us insight into his marriage, family, and radio career. But only small chunks is a 20+ year stint as a disc jockey.
I knew him as a d.j. and that's where my life was most in contact with Arlie.
One of the parts I'd like to understand isn't in the book, as it was written in 1983. Arlie left Texas for Connecticut in 1985, where he became a teacher and coach again. He stayed there until he died and never returned to his beloved Texas. Was it because his son Casey died here? I don't know.
