Dominica: A Story of What God Can Do Ed Robinette

This story is about the life of a young man, named Jim Baxter, who is injured in the War and decides to go to medical school and become a doctor to serve his fellow man. While in school he suffers a life threatening accident that leaves him scarred and deformed. Ashamed of his appearance, he decides to live on the Island of Dominica, where he hopes that no one will care about his appearance. In his quest to still practice medicine, he devotes himself to the Carib Indians, a native people that live on the tiny island. As the story unfolds, Jim touches the lives of others, as his life is touched by the hand of God. It is my great honor that I was able to work on this story with my grandfather. Dr. James Howell Ed Robinette has done an excellent job with sharp visuals to bring the reader right into the story. In no time you are there following the characters as they move around the island. Robinette has that rare ability to make a movie inside the head of any reader. I loved the fact that it was so easy and fun to read. I am sure he will have many more as he clearly loves to tell a story. Lantz Powell. President of the Chattanooga Writers Guild
