{"product_id":"leaving-tinkertown-9780826353665","title":"Leaving Tinkertown","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen Tanya Ward Goodman came home to New Mexico to visit her dad at the end of 1996, he was fifty-five years old and just beginning to show symptoms of the Alzheimer's disease that would kill him six years later. Early onset dementia is a shock and a challenge to every family, but the Wards were not an ordinary family. Ross Ward was an eccentric artist and collector whose unique museum, Tinkertown, brought visitors from all over the world to the Sandia Mountains outside Albuquerque. In this book Tanya tells Ross's story and her own, sharing the tragedy and the unexpected comedy of caring for this funny, stubborn man who remained a talented artist even as he changed before his family's eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tanya Ward Goodman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of New Mexico Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.30w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780826353665\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e New Mexico-Arizona Book Awards - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e New Mexico-Arizona Book Awards - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e New Mexico-Arizona Book Awards - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTanya Ward Goodman\u003c\/b\u003e's essays have appeared in the \u003ci\u003eCup of Comfort \u003c\/i\u003eanthology series, \u003ci\u003eLiterary Mama\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Huffington Post\u003c\/i\u003e, and TheNextFamily.com.
