About this ebook

Initially, the Autobiography of Clabon Jones sounds like a simple story of a mischievous boy pulling pranks as he grows up in a small Louisiana bayou town. It tells a little about his family and his impoverished childhood. It relays the entertaining shenanigans of a little black boy growing up in the South during the 1950s. The story discloses the events that took place as the little boy grows into manhood.

What is intriguing is how the story is told and how events unfold to reveal the character and constitution of the central character, who went from being an innocent, naughty little boy, being a Point Man in the Jungles of Vietnam and on a Search and Destroy Mission in Cambodia.

What makes the story interesting is that it is a true, sometimes humorous accounting of the life of Clabon Jones, an ordinary man who led an extraordinary life as he relied on his belief in God, his spiritual upbringing, his common sense and his uncommon innate strong will and determination to survive.

Clabon Jones

• I Promise Myself • To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind. • To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet. • To make all my friends feel that there is something in them. • To look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true. • To think only of the best, to work only for the best and expect only the best. • To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own. • To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. • To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature I meet a smile. • To give so much time to the improvement of myself that I have no time to criticize others. • To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the pressure of trouble. • This is My Life • Clabon Jones, Author
