Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Stirred up like a good roux, stories by Dr. Walter H. Daniels combine childhood, manhood and physician experiences. As a young boy, Walter operated on his pet skunk. Growing up in Cajun south Louisiana, he learned of hard work from his stern father and French dialect from his grandmother. In medical school he earned money fishing cadavers.

He married the love of his life, Pam, under the giant oak on the lawn of their home, Idlewild. Their thirty years of travel adventures include a trip on the Concorde, a flat in Paris and meeting a world leader. Other tales tell of strange visitors, historical findings and ghost happenings in the couple's 160-year-old home on the bayou. An entertaining book of joyful recollections and reflections on life well-lived.…

His traveling companions include psychotic kindergarten teachers, Israeli sailors, and Southern Baptists on fire for Christ. In each dispatch, Daniels takes risks--not just literary (voice, tone, form) but also more immediate, such as spending two years on a Brazilian jiu-jitsu team (he gets beaten to a pulp, repeatedly) or participating in group psychoanalysis (where he goes temporarily insane).
