About this product

Product Information

There was a time in North Texas when the law meant the sheriff rather than statutes or court decisions, and people were sometimes arrested for looking suspicious. Many country doctors had minimal education, but they were hardworking and dedicated. Home remedies, patent medicine, and placebos bought at medicine shows were commonplace. Emotional revival meetings in open tabernacles spiced hot summer nights. A little boy could grow up secure there, full of mischief, enjoying whittling, family trips, and crawfishing. He could see the pioneer homes of his forebears and view the birth of more urban ways. Jim Tom Barton's Eighter from Decatur provides lively insights into the ways of a small North Texas county seat during the first decades of this century. Personal experiences, newspaper stories, historical information, yarns, and anecdotes--some humorous, some sad--are intertwined to give present-day readers a firsthand feel for the attitudes, customs, and conditions of an earlier time. Texana lovers, social historians, and those with a small-town background will find this book an entertaining chapter in the exploration of the roots of Texas culture.

    Living with Diabetes Book as described and pictured. Very good used condition, good quality with a nice appearance and very good value. I bought this for my husband as he has type 2 diabetes and this is The Diabetes UK Guide for those treated with tablets as my husband is or diet, so I hope it will give him better understanding of his diabetes. Good communication dispatched quickly well wrapped delivered very quickly very pleased with it. Highly Recommended Seller

    El producto llegó pronto, pero no con la descripción, la tapa dura llegó con un Crack y un agujero, en la portada del libro, contacte al vendedor y fue muy cordial y amable, me devolvió un 30% del producto o me ofrecía la posibilidad de devolver el producto y recibir 100% del costo, no creí que mereciera la pena, ya que me costó muy muy barato. Recomiendo este vendedor por la profesionalidad y dedicación a sus clientes. Gracias por el buen trato.
