Richard Neal Huffman announced the release of his latest book. Richard said of
the Kelly’s Way, “Mitchell Kelly seemed to always be in the sights of trouble. Maybe it was his demeanor. Maybe
it was his hardened looks. Many had told him he always looked pissed off. Whatever the reason Mitch’s trek through life
led him on a long hard road. Nevertheless, he found he felt compelled to do things his way, even when others chose the easier
route. Kelly’s Way is what I term a ‘factional’ story of a young man going through life’s challenges
and doing it his way. I use the term ‘factional’ because the story is one of fiction but has much fact to it.
I’m sure you’ll enjoy, Kelly’s Way. I know I enjoyed writing it.” More information about the book is available at lulu.com
Richard Huffman recently submitted the short story The Bear
and I, to Police-Writers.com. You can read it here.
Richard Neal Huffman was born the son of a sharecropper. At the age of two
his parents migrated to southwest Michigan. At 20, Richard was drafted into the
United States Army where he served as a medic. After discharge, he joined the
National Guard and later the Army Reserves. Richard joined the Bangor Police
Department and throughout his career he would serve as a patrol officer, training officer, sergeant, detective and assistant
chief of police. Richard’s first book, “Dreams in Blue: The Real Police,” is an autobiographical journey
that takes the reader inside the world of the small town cop. He introduces the reader to people, situations, and a culture
that is both interesting and unique. Richard’s second book, “Rubal,” is a fictional account of a Union soldier during the Civil War.
