Vasquez, the first Hispanic American appointed to the United States Tax Court. The book depicts his journey surmounting numerous challenges such as poverty, manual labor, and discrimination. It explores his pursuit of education to build -- with the support of family, friends, and mentors - -a professional career serving family, community, taxpayers, and the tax system.   Judge Vasquez’s story demonstrates that one can excel in the practice of tax law and serve the community and taxpayers while doing so, regardless of ethnicity, socioeconomic status, school pedigree, or geographic location. The overall message -- that hard work, perseverance, and persistence in the face of adversity can lead to unimaginable opportunities -- should resonate with all readers.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50397922754833,"sku":"CIN164105820XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52341171781905,"sku":"NLS9781641058209","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52816669245713,"sku":"CIN164105820XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/164105820X.jpg?v=1750863653"},{"product_id":"texas-dives-book-anthony-head-9781648430121","title":"Texas Dives","description":"While sometimes mischaracterized as the last respite of alcoholism, despair, and questionable motives, Texas dive bars are a reminder that life is not limited to the pressures and profits of the 9-to-5 world. A true dive earns its status through age and patron loyalty, so while dives are outposts from much of society, they’re typically stable businesses and often active in their neighborhoods. Dives are also gathering places, where the members, lubricated by affordable beer and long pours of whisky, solve the world’s problems on a regular basis.In Texas Dives: Enduring Neighborhood Bars of the Lone Star State, veteran writer Anthony Head and internationally recognized photographer Kirk Weddle visit twelve bars in twelve Texas cities. With pithy text and revealing images, they tell the stories of some of these off-the-radar hangouts of Americana, shining light on the bars and their owners, staffs, and regulars. Head and Weddle are quick to point out that this book is not about drinking, per se: it’s a book about Texas culture intimately observed, plus just enough participation to claim with confidence that dives also serve as community anchor points, social clubs, and even, on occasion, places where enduring friendships are made.  This witty and sympathetic portrayal is sure to become a bucket-list book for general readers, fans of Texana, and almost anyone who has ever ducked around to the corner pub for a quick drink.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51116165169425,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51116165333265,"sku":"CIN1648430120VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51607032922385,"sku":"CIN1648430120G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1648430120.jpg?v=1763485318"},{"product_id":"doctor-who-project-who-cd-9780563510949","title":"\"Doctor Who\", Project Who?","description":"Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper are amongst those talking exclusively about the smash hit 2005 TV series \"Doctor Who\" in this BBC Radio 2 documentary, presented by Anthony Head. \"Project: Who?\" goes exclusively behind the scenes of \"Doctor Who\" to discover how the action-packed new BBC1 series was made, with award-winning writer and executive producer Russell T Davies at the helm.
