About the Book

Santa Fe Boy: Tales from the Black Sheep in a Hyper-competitive, Catholic Family is a hit! Here's what a few readers had to say . . . "Very much enjoyed (Santa Fe Boy) while laying in bed! I laughed out loud at so many of (the) stories. (The) "hat pin" story had me in stitches. Families are so complex and intriguing at the same time." - Denise Cole "I didn't want to stop reading. Family, church, values, aspirations all ring true for me. And Santa Fe . . . you bring it to life." - Tom Roney "(Santa Fe Boy) had me very entertained . . . racing to read each story to find out what happened and how it ended! I found myself wanting MORE!!! Having grown up in Santa Fe also it made it particularly interesting for me. I gained an appreciation of you, your parents and your family and an understanding of what it might have been like to be 5th of 6 children!" - Kyndy Boyle Santa Fé Boy: Tales from the Black Sheep in a Hyper-competitive, Catholic Family (a memoir) is the first book written by Dr. James Martinez.

A real page-turner!
