From Atheism to Christianity, Second Edition

Описание:

The old South bursts to life in this series of adventures by one of the Palmetto State's most celebrated physicians. From farming peaches in his family's Ridge Spring orchards to surviving the depression, becoming a US Marine deployed in the bloody Pacific Theater to the agonizing and often hilarious recollections of being educated and trained as a physician, Dr. Mike Watson's life resonates with stories about family, friends, career decisions, school, and job demands. From the moment he proved to his older brother, Joe, that he could indeed catch a cloud, young Mickey spent time chasing and resolving all manner of challenges. And--like that hot day on the dirt road to Clouds Creek looking for relief from shade--his quest became to provide comfort to those in need. The Cloud Chaser brings forth smiles and tears as the recalled events elicit memories from our own childhoods. But it wasn't all breezy shade. His stint as a Marine exposes a boy's stunning revelation of life's seriousness while finding humor in drills, instructors, and electronics school. The future Dr. Watson's medical education, though intense, depicts idiosyncrasies that are delightfully entertaining. His internship places him squarely in the middle of a polio epidemic. This memoir is not only rich with facts but warm with human bonds, leaving the reader inspired, contemplative, and feeling more connected with less fortunate members of Society. A nationally honored visionary, Dr. Watson's community leadership is lauded in, among other books, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley's Can't Is Not an Option.
