In the tradition of Little Big Man and Forrest Gump, Tales From The Storyboard is the vernacular narration of Rayford Hollis’ long and eventful life. As a ranch cook, army cook, restaurant chef and owner of his own café, Rayford takes the reader on a memorable journey to Cuba with Roosevelt’s Rough Riders, and to all the principal cities of Europe with Buffalo Bill’s Wild West. He leads you back to America’s Mexican border with Black Jack Pershing during The Mexican Revolution, and then on with Pershing to war-torn France. He tells of the Chicago speakeasies of prohibition, the Jim Crow south, and Native American struggles in the west. Tales From The Storyboard is a larger-than-life saga of war and peace, of romance and loss, of tragedy and intrigue told in lively, energetic episodes.
In Episode 2, A Tortilla For Pancho Villa, Rayford takes the reader on a journey with Pancho Villa's army during the Mexican Revolution across the Mexican desert to the decisive battle at Torreon in 1913.
