Dr. Brynn Allard is a brilliant young orthopaedic surgeon, increasingly frustrated by the misogyny of university surgical practice.

Outdoors Stupid from Around the World is Bob Bell's third book. The first two were about the Alaskan adventures of Bob and his band of I.Q.-challenged friends. During his travels around the world hunting and fishing, Bob met many guides, outfitters, professional hunters and their clients. They related several stories to him, many of which are included in this book. These stories show that the love of the outdoors exists everywhere you go. Also that I.Q.-challenged decisions are an international curse. This book takes the reader on adventures throughout the world with a whole new cast of characters who continue the tradition of questionable judgement and bad luck.

The settlement of Steelville, Missouri, was named in 1835 in honor of its first mercantile store and property owner James Steel. Since then, the little town has survived devastation, with the flood of 1898, and destruction, with the great fire of 1904. Yet while many neighboring towns such as Midland and Sankey have vanished, Steelville has been resilient and survived. This is thanks to its founding fathers who realized the importance of education, with the construction of the Steelville Academy in 1851, the Steelville School System in 1886, and bringing to town the Steelville Normal and Business Institute in 1890, where many a young lad and ladies commenced with a formal education. Many graduates went on to be successful, like John Zahorsky, who would become known internationally as the world's most influential pediatrician; Judge Albert L. Reeves, who helped settle this great nation's civil rights cases; and John T. Woodruff, the great attorney for the Frisco Railroad. The photographs of this book have been collected for years by those locals wanting to keep track of their heritage--from the building of their railroad, to the flood, to the simple pleasures of their lives, like picnics on the courthouse lawn.
