Produktbeschreibung
In this eclectic collection of personal essays, short fiction, and nonfiction, retired Texas District Court Judge Susan P. Baker writes about "what she knows." Her father was from a poor family, one of ten children, and entered military service pre-WWII as a means of survival. He used his GI Bill benefits to earn a law degree in 1950s Houston. Her mother, an English war bride, joined her husband in Texas after the end of the war.

That Susan's parents instilled a sense of empathy in her is reflected in her writings as she shows what life was like in the 50s and 60s growing up on Galveston Island, Texas, then later into adulthood, and in the anguish, outrage, and sadness she witnessed as a family law attorney, and finally as a Family Court Judge.
