Marvin Tyson is a lifelong Texan of many generations (his first confirmed ancestors arrived in Texas about 1820-24). He was born in Brown County in 1949. â His family was poor while he was growing up. He got his first real job when he was eleven years old working at a Corpus Christi marina for a dollar a day! That was seven days a week when school was out, and it seemed like a ton of money to him. He also got tips from customers that could more than double his salary at times. That enabled him to buy school clothes for the next year and take in a weekly movie (twenty-five cents with a coke and popcorn or candy!). Marvin served a tour in Vietnam as an infantry platoon leader with the 82nd Airborne and 101st Airborne Divisions. When he came home, he worked anywhere he could find a job until he taught himself how to weld and went into the construction industry as a pipe welder.

didn't want it to end. But I wouldn't expect less from this author.
Please give us more. I'm waiting for a sequel. Marvin Tyson is
definitely up-and-coming. Onward Texas! -- mirismc --

Great read for all Patriots wanting to return to the Constitution.
Marvin Tyson did a great job portraying the need for change in our
nation and states. He hits the nail on the head showing us the way
to accomplish these needs. He also shows the love of Texians for
our Republic and our freedoms. If you liked Patriots of Treason and
State of Treason, you will love this book. Exciting and compelling.
