Trip to the Jackson Purchase, the Wildcat Excerpt

The complete post is at  http://darkbloodyground.blogspot.com/2011/08/trip-to-jackson-purchase-previous-post.html

But the Wildcat portion is here:

The most interesting tidbit learned during the trip is that the widow of Dr. V.A. Jackson lives around the corner from mother.  Mother chats with her from time to time and has visited.  Mother told me Mrs. Jackson has a little “shrine” to the Doctor with some UK mementos.  I asked mother to take me over and introduce me, she said, “She isn’t home.  She is off doing charity work somewhere. Always on the go she is. Wonderful woman.  Always refers to her husband as, “the Doctor”." o   Dr. Jackson’s book, Beyond the Baron, A Personal Glance at Coach Adolph Rupp, is a fine read.  Nothing controversial, nothing offensive, just a friendly recounting of his years with Coach Rupp and his love of the Wildcats. My favorite pages of the book are 100-103.  The various "OldCats" will like it as well. o   One has to love a book with recipes from Wah Wah Jones and Cotton Nash.
