Growing Up on the Blocks

By Carlton Britton

Growing up is never easy. But doing so on The Blocks, an extensive ranch located north of the Capitan Mountains in New Mexico, is even more difficult. From living through years of drought and surviving a fire in the family home to endless, exhausting days of chores, blood, and dust, join Dr. Carlton Britton as he reveals the harsh realities of life as a sheep rancher in the American Southwest in the twentieth century.

Embellished with wit and a wry sense of humor, Dr. Britton shares stories of perseverance, family, sacrifice, friends, and hard work. Replete with a complete chronology of the Block Ranch and its holdings as well as colorful accounts of the people who called that piece of solitude home, Growing Up on The Blocks brings familiarity to a time and place most have never seen or known about.
