As a Child, Preston Williams, craved the adventure and excitement he read about in Western, Dime Novels. All he wanted, was to someday, be a real cowboy.
This picture of my grandfather, Preston Williams, was taken in 1922, during the Jazz age, of the Roaring 20's. Prohibition was in full force and Hollywood's heyday was just beginning.
Preston was a born athlete, a boxer, swimmer and WW1 Vet, - perfect requirements for a stuntman in the movies. His hero's were Tom Mix and Will Rogers who would eventually touch his life in the most unexpected way.
