Book Signing with Dr. Richard Stewart

Flight for Life is the heart-stopping account of one of the most gripping rescue missions in African history.  Told by a doctor involved in saving the lives of Nigerian workers who became victims of a tragic S.C. Johnson Company chemical explosion, Dr. Richard Stewart and his colleague moved mountains and cut red tape to fly patients to one of the premiere burn centers in the United States.

Come and meet Dr. Stewart on April 12 at 7:00 p.m. in the Adult Services Department at the Racine Public Library.  There will be a short presentation with an opportunity for questions.  Dr. Stewart  will also be signing copies of his book.  Normally sold for $24.95, the books will be available that evening for just $10.00.

Dr. Stewart is a specialist in both internal medicine and medical toxicology and has served as professor at the Medical College of Wisconsin since 1966.  He holds several medical patents, including the hollow fiber artificial kidney. He and his wife Mary live in Racine.
