"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 of the
Racine Public Library. There will be a short presentation after which Dr. Stewart will be
available for questions. He 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.
