Book Description
Abilene History in Plain Sight is a guide to the people, places, and events that define Abilene. It provides the high vantage point from which you come to know the lives behind the names--Cooper High School, Shotwell Stadium, and Maxwell Golf Course--and to meet those who are honored by the naming of a park or street (such as Egbert Kirby, Nelson Wilson, Vera Minter, and Walker Ely). In this engaging book, the past is picked up, dusted off, and given a new shine. As you learn the story behind the church, school, or college that you drive past, it will create a connection that serves to endear Abilene to you more deeply. This is a book that brings the relics of the past out of the dark and straight into the hometown in your heart.

Book Description
Cowboys and Indian: A Doctor's First Year in Texas is an exciting and entertaining account of a doctor's first year of practice in an underserved Texas hospital. Besides the challenges of being an immigrant and a husband and father, the doctor manages medical emergencies like cardiac arrests, collapsed lungs, industrial accidents, lacerations, and other traumas--all with minimal resources. In the course of that fateful first year, the heart-warming and often hilarious events show medical science at its best. This book shows a doctor's life at an intimate level, with its many rewards, struggles, and exchanges. This memoir reveals that humor, compassion, and humility make the practice of medicine fulfilling and inspiring.
