    About this audiobook

    '[These] vignettes of Brownsville people, part real and part fiction, capture the character of our border community. The reader becomes involved with the characters and the stories. It's as though the essence of our society and culture had been opened to view through a historical prism. And the stories are just plain pleasurable to read.' -Dr. Anthony Knopp, Ph.D, Professor of History at the University of Texas at Brownsville, Texas
