An Honorable Place

De: Henry Taylor Millard

Narrado por: Henry Taylor Millard

When a black-haired, three-year-old girl is found wounded in a dumpster outside the small town of Travis City, Texas, the mystery of who she is and how she got there sets off a 30-year saga of two diverse families. The little girl, Lourdes, is adopted by Danny and Maria Sanchez, a loving, poor couple, and the child flourishes with her own special talents and assistance by the town patriarch, William Barrett Downs the Third.

Over a lifetime in An Honorable Place, we follow Lourdes Sanchez’s victories, along with her soul-searching sorrows. It is a story of what it means to be a Texan, in a time when many in the world wonder why this land is so special to its citizens. If you still believe in honor, work ethic, and the power of the individual, you will believe the stories of Travis City, Texas.

Great character that pull you in to the story

This is a great story about the forgotten small town life which illustrates how communities interact with one another and one action leads to another . It's a well written book though at times I thought it was overly descriptive it tells a heart felt story of everyday people's lives. It is ripe with characters that deal with their ethics, character and the temptations of life but somehow as a community they find the best in one another. I highly recommend it. Every one could benefit from having a mentor and neighbor like Mr. Downs III.
