Offering glimpses into life on the famous ranch, Cavazos tells of Christmas parties, cattle work, and schooling.Cavazos describes the high educational expectations his parents held. After service in World War II, Cavazos went to college and earned a doctorate from Iowa State University, launching his career in medical education.Cavazos' career is as interesting as it is inspiring. His memoir joins the ranks of emerging success stories by Mexican Americans that will provide models for aspiring young people today.
