About the Author

Mark Marshall is a lifelong Texan who has spent countless hours on Interstate 20, in cattle auctions near Pilot Point, and in studies of English liturgy and history as well, including stints at Oxford.

Tapping his Texas experiences and his Anglican faith, Marshall has created an introspective and poignant fictional narrative, Pilot Point, in which the Old West and the Book of Common Prayer echo in unison throughout its pages.
