Men, Women, and Rattlesnakes / Sin is Man's Twin (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798886010381)

MEN, WOMEN AND RATTLESNAKES

Welcome to Menham. Perhaps you should start your tour by dropping by Lem Witherbee's saloon where all the customers have their own private drinking mugs which they talk to for advice. Tonight they're talking about Miss Hummer's new baby. Miss Hummer being the prim, man-hating virgin that she is, everyone assumes that the father is probably Arthur Moore. But Arthur doesn't have any use for Miss Hummer. He doesn't really have use for women at all except as lust receptacles. Arthur prefers the company of his rattlesnakes.

If you spend some time in Menham, you'll get to know Miss Hummer and her baby, Henrietta; and Arthur Moore, of course. Not to mention May Cline, who walks in her sleep and into the barn every night. And Minnie Muller, who is blessed with the kind of body that is the perfect match to all the men in town. And Peter Brush, the travelling salesman, who tries so hard to keep his customers happy that he ends up fathering a whole new generation of Peters. And don't forget Deacon Ormsby, who preaches against the sins of alcohol with a Bible in one hand and a bottle in the other.

Welcome to Menham... there's room for one more...
