Lewis Grizzard always makes us laugh. But this time, when he tells us all about his father---a certified war hero and a shameless passer of bad checks...a charmer of men and women and a consummate con artist...a man of great courage and an alcoholic destined to drink himself to death---he's going to make us cry, too. And he's going to give us a halarious, moving account of that "tender, spooly territory: that country of the heart inhabited by fathers and sons.
