"In God We Trust" is a Great Book from a Great Writer.
Von Douglas McIntyre
Jean Shepherd is dead, but his genius lives on. Shepherd is one of the great writers of our time. Nobody has ever written with more insight into the child's mind. I could rave on about the literary merits of his work, but let's cut to the chase... "In God We Trust, All Other's Pay Cash" is laugh out loud funny! If you were lucky enough to have heard Shepherd on WOR radio it's even better, since Shep's voice will echo in your head. I love Jean Shepherd. I wanted to be Jean Shepherd. Buy this book and pass it on.

Every Christmas season, I'm reminded of the work of Jean Shepherd when the movie A Christmas Sotry airs on TV. A funny, likeable movie on its own , it always brings me back to my childhood in the 60's, sitting on the edge of my bed with my father, listening nightly to Mr Shepherd's wonderful monologues on WOR radio in NY. In God We Trust.. is a compliation of some of the hundreds of storys told by Shepherd during his radio days. Highly recommended, it will make you laugh out loud and should have special memories for those 'boomers' from the NY area whe grew up listening to this funny funny man.

In God We Trust. All Others Pay Cash
Von Karl Sarpolis
After seeing "Ollie Hopnoddle's Haven of Bliss" on PBS T.V. several years ago, I thought back on Jean Sheppard and his radio show Jean Sheppard's America. Then I faintly remembered his work in Car & Driver back in the late '70's. This was after he left WOR radio I guess? The Christmas Story and other works he did on PBS still bring back memories of growing up in the midwest in the 50's. Then I bought the two Sheppard books and have my 12 year old daughter experiencing the joy of Jean Sheppard. His death recently is a loss to all of us who grew up in the inocent years.
