Foreword by Marty Stuart. from the foreword: “At the dawn of the 1930s God spoke and called forth from the Texas dust a sound… a sound that will forever be known as that of the Chuck Wagon Gang.” How beautiful those harmonies must have sounded as the sun was setting into the west. The words and music were surely a healing balm for a weary people. Heaven only knows how many hearts have been touched by their music. Now, well into the twenty-first century, we can still gather around the Chuck Wagon Gang and have the privilege of hearing them sing heaven's songs of peace, hope and promise to all of us migrants living in this loud, clattering world below.
