Carl Maxey: A Fighting Life (V Ethel Willis White… by Jim Kershner

Kershner knew his subject personally, left no stone unturned in his research, and brought to life a Spokane icon. For Spokanites, it is a page turner. Carl Maxey lived a life that would have flattened a person of normal strength. He was fascinating, complex and well worth the read.
