 Just Another Square Dance Caller is more than a biography filled with the remembrances and stories of a 90-year-old man with 64 years’ experience in the world of square dance. It’s a unique and colorful retelling of the life and times of Marshall 'Flip' Flippo; a legend in the world of square dance callers. Flippo was a Navy veteran, father, husband, and proud Texan who lived a life of passion and zest until his passing in 2018.      With chapter titles like Three More Ships & Baseball, Burma Shave Jingles, North and Then East, South, & Home for Christmas, Four Special 'Once Mores,' and Callers Flippo Called With & Slept With, this biography will give readers an entertaining look at the long life and career of a man who claimed to have acquired his first big career break in a chicken coop.       Flippo may have been considered a Renaissance man by many, but those who knew him best recognized him as a humble man who insisted that he was lucky and oftentimes 'at the right place at the right time.' He also maintained until his passing that he was 'just another square dance caller' who had been blessed with the opportunity to turn his passion into a career. Just Another Square Dance Caller is truly a legacy to his body of work, humor, wisdom, and love of life. 3
