Keith Murphy was born in 1948 in Moultrie, Georgia. He grew up on the family farm, and attended public schools before graduating from Mercer University in 1970. Four years later he graduated from Walter F. George Law School, and returned to Moultrie to practice law from 1974 until 2001. Keith took early retirement from his law practice, and moved to the mountains of North Georgia. After ten years in Blairsville, he recently relocated to Fernandina Beach, Florida. His interests include guitar, old Delta blues, and experiencing off-the-wall adventures. He recently had a little excitement on the Rio das Mortes in Mato Grosso, Brazil, and a less dangerous adventure as a semi driver criss-crossing the United States. His next project is recreating a neighborhood corner market in Fernandina. Topping his bucket list, is a horseback crossing of the lower Andes Mountains. Meanwhile, he enjoys aggravating his conservative friends on Facebook, and doing the unexpected. Keith's characters in this non-fiction memoir about his youth, are just as real as the Atlantic Ocean is big. Whoa Yonder! is intended to be both enertaining and enlightening. See less
