This anthology, spanning the author's thirty-year writing career, draws from some of Bode's popular early works as well as some pieces not previously published in book form. These "word portraits" trace his growing up in the Hill Country of Central Texas and his experiences as a teacher at Austin High School in the border region of El Paso/Juarez.
