A Memoir

There is a palpable passion to King’s prose and an immutable sense of pride permeating every page of his memoir. He admits to the urge to pen this work after the death of his parents and of having an “uneasy feeling that something’s left to be done.” His ultimate purpose in writing the book was to “thank and honor the many who have impacted my life.” Buoyed by his Christian faith and credence in cowboy wisdom, both of which are fondly and consistently referenced throughout the memoir, King possesses a venturesome spirit and a fierce dedication to his homeland that come across beautifully. “Growing up country is one of my most treasured blessings,” he writes. Never boring or overbearingly sentimental, the author’s writing strikes a keen balance between the resonant musings of an accomplished medical provider and the reflections of a Southern cattleman.
