About the Author
Thomas Edward Ball was born in Hawley, Pennsylvania, on February 4, 1929. He spent much of his youth exploring the backwoods of the Pocono Mountains in the northeastern corner of the state, which were literally right outside his back door.
Although he had a gift for storytelling, he was consumed with his family of 10 children and his work and as such did not begin writing until he retired in the early '80s. He wrote four novels prior to passing away on May 19, 2000. He had so much more to experience and write.
