The Civilian - Book event with author Oscar Porter, Oct. 14th at Florey's!
Florey's Books welcomes local author Oscar Porter as he discusses his autobiographical book, "The Civilian".
***Sunday, Oct. 14th, 2pm-4pm***
About the book:
True stories of real-life heroism. I react not knowing the outcome. Each experience is never the same. My brain scans the area before I go in to assess the situation. I notice as much detail as my brain can record, and then I react. All this happens in a millisecond!
About the author:
I knew from childhood that I had something inside me that seemed to care about the well being of human beings and wildlife. My mother, whom I love very much, would let me play in the hills of San Francisco full of trees, and open land full of wildlife. I learned to enjoy having wildlife around me, I began to care! I would also go to church and hear words of care and love toward nature and people from my father the Reverend, and other Pastors. As I grow in age I saw on television movies about heroes who were helping people and saving lives all of this experience had an profound effect on way I view life, and people. Later in my life I became a Boy Scout, a leader in my church, a nurse, a counselor, and a first responder.

We hope to see you!
