To say that Carl Yeatman has led a very interesting life would be an understatement. He is a country boy from Mississippi who, one could say, has a gift at "spinning a yarn" in the old Southern tradition. Nine Lives and Counting is an entertaining and compelling collection of true accounts of Carl’s nine near-death experiences.

Mary didn’t start painting until just before this book was penned, but the timing was perfect, and the stories wouldn’t be the same without them.
