Before becoming a sexagenarian, author Thom Thomas has successfully published his debut novel derived from Charles Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol,' titled '...give or take a pebble.' This book, which is the beginning of a four-book chronicle, tells the story of Dr. Joshua Krump, a man who survives poverty, tragedies and deaths to complete his medical education and become a surgeon. Now, he releases the second book in the series, titled '...give or take a shilling.'
