In Porch Talk, Philip Gulley, voice of small-town America and a peerless observer of humanity, reminds us of what we hold dear, and what's truly important in life. With poignancy and humor, he reflects on small-town living back when society revolved around the front porch, where friends gathered, stories were told, and small moments took on a large meaning.

Gulley speaks of his musings during Quaker meetings, friends in town like Charlie the hardware priest and the Bettys at the newspaper, and why Donald Trump should pay more taxes. Porch Talk is a tribute to common folk, simple pleasures, and timeless joy.

Philip Gulley is the author of Front Porch Tales and the acclaimed Harmony series. He hosts "Porch Talk with Phil Gulley" on the Indiana PBS affiliate WFYI television's flagship show "Across Indiana." He and his wife, Joan, live in Indiana with their sons, Spencer and Sam.

"Reading Porch Talk is like sitting next to an old friend and listening to the music of his storytelling as we used to do back when."
