Stories from My Father's Barbershop available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. BARBERSHOPS have long been the social hub of the neighborhood. Here, men gather to swap tales, debate politics, and share memories. For Joe David Garner Jr., soaking up the stories of such men in his father's Mississippi barbershop served as a pivotal part of his childhood. A compendium of witty, amusing, and sometimes tragic tales, Stories from My Father's Barbershop relates anecdotes from six men who regularly congregated in Garner Sr.'s barbershop. Spanning the early 1900s to the 1970s, these tales return to rural Mississippi at a time when educational, economic, and political barriers including the Jim Crow laws had a significant impact on these men's lives. Colorful characters bring these stories to vivid life. There's Ward Ellis, son of two poor sharecroppers and considered by many to be a genius; gambling buddies Bender Giles and Ralph Henson, who almost lost it all; college-educated Vernon Nevins, who embarks on the road trip of a lifetime; and William Walker, who rose from poverty to become a highly successful businessman. Through the power of storytelling, Stories from My Father's Barbershop provides a rich, multifaceted look at the American South during some of its most turbulent times.

Download and read online ebook The Barbershop Quartet write by Colin Froman. This book was released on 2005. The Barbershop Quartet available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The author grew up in South Africa. His book describes a life style of education both in Johannesburg and then in Oxford in the mid-20th Century. A medical career in physiology, general surgery and neurosurgery led to encounters with patients, medical colleagues and tort lawyers whose personal stories, talents and idiosyncrasies colour the book. These histories are painted against the background of the trials and tribulations of the practice of medicine in South Africa in the era when Verwoerd and his successors strode the stage. Interspersed throughout are excerpts from the life stories and scientific contributions of researchers in the fields of surgical physiology, general and spinal surgery. The dramatic progress of neuroadiology and aspects of medicine and surgery across the century form a backdrop to the catalogue of life in the "Black" hospitals of Johannesburg. The problems of medical ethics of survival from womb to tomb, and the conflicts that arise from cultures and legal constraints against the practice of euthanasia, are always in play. Right to life issues contrast with a death wish of some personalities in a morbid field of medicine and add to the drama of life and death played out in the story. This volume will appeal to doctors, lawyers, patients, road crash victims, and anybody with an interest in the wide fields of medical and social history of the 20th Century.
