    Trudy J. Smith and her father, M. Bruce Jones, published this original book about the Lawson family murders in 1990.  At 148 pages, it is an easy book to read. It became very popular and by 1994 it went out of print. The original book was a trade paper back.  Over the years it became highly collectible, with copies fetching hundreds of dollars each.  In 2006 Trudy made the decision to use the new information that was gained about the Lawson true crime story for The Meaning of Our Tears.   The love for the original version never waivered, however, and it continues to be highly sought after.  Realizing this, Trudy published a very special 25th Anniversary hard cover edition so that collectors would still be able to find and read the original version.  This new version is very special with gold leaf embellishments and a beautiful matching protective sleeve.  Very few were produced and it is destined to be even more collectible than the original version.  If your goal is to read a simple version of the story and a book that is destined to be unbelievably collectible and valuable in time, then White Christmas Bloody Christmas might be your choice.  Of course many people purchase both since both are very desirable!
