Colorado in the Fifties: The Making of a Veterinarian (Two Centuries in America) (Volume 2)

By William E Jones

Here is the second book of a series describing the life of an American living in the West, growing up to be a cowboy veterinarian. This Volume 2 tells about how he became a veterinarian and how life was in Colorado right after World War II. Subsequent volumes describe his "on the job training," in his chosen profession of veterinary medicine. This includes meat inspection, private practice, his academic career, his college teaching, his writing and publishing adventures, and how he makes another career out of retirement. Through it all, he faces the challenge of changing times, and vows to live longer than his grandmother who made it to 109 years of age.William E Jones writes his life in third person and includes historical information along the way. This series of short books provides an historical peak at how he coped with changing times in two separate centuries of life. This one describes his troubles with immaturity as he gets a formal education and establishes his first veterinary practice in Laramie, Wyoming.
