She teases and abuses him as he places his life on the line for her day after day, year after year. Deirdre does not know at what point she begins to love him. But Roman knows from the very beginning that to love her will mean his death. The Annals of Lystra begin with Chataine's Guardian, continue in Stone of Help, and conclude in Liberation of Lystra.

'Otros Dias' is the journal of Dr. Garcia's journey from the 'other days' he remembers in old Mexico to his days of pioneering early medicine along the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas. It is a story told with memories of harshness and moments of tenderness. The chronicle Dr. Garcia writes provides an important vision of the Mexico and Texas he knew. Octavio Garcia was born on February 22, 1899 in Mier, Mexico. In 1917 Garcia traveled to Missouri to attend medical school at St. Louis University. There he received his Bachelor of Science degree and his Medical Degree. He conducted research in pathology and bacteriology and was an instructor at St. Louis University School of Medicine from 1925-1929. Dr. Garcia practiced medicine in McAllen, Texas, longer than any other physician, having opened his office in 1930 and practiced fifty years until his retirement in 1980. The author lost his son during the Korean War, in the service to their new homeland.
