For twenty-four years, Ray Martinez served as a police officer in
Fort Collins, Colorado, working everything from minor crimes to
hard-to-solve homicides. But all that time, a personal mystery
nagged at him. Ray was adopted, and he desperately wanted to find
his biological mother. Ray delved into his search in April 2005,
soon after retiring. He was hopeful but not overconfident since his
past searches had always ended in failure. This time, he put the
investigative skills he acquired as a police officer to full use.
By searching through public records, visiting Web sites to study
ancestry, and traveling through small towns in Colorado, Ray
gathered clues with dogged persistence. In the process, he met new
people, developed lasting relationships, and gained a fresh
perspective on life. But by far, the most significant outcome was
finding his mother, four sisters, and brother-the family he had
been without for fifty-four years. "Baby Boy-R" is a heartwarming
story of a son who refuses to give up trying to discover where he
came from and the courageous mother who welcomes back the boy she
thought died at birth.
Taking a cue from the millions of younger Americans who have recently rediscovered pool, Times Books has revamped and redesigned this classic guide to the sport.
