About this ebook
This is a book about an unlikely friendship between two boys from different ethnicities in 1940s Montgomery, Alabama. One boy is Caucasian and the other boy is African-American. The friendship was frowned upon during the years of segregation of the races. The story tells of how the friendship was the transformational event that shaped how the Caucasian boy viewed race during the turmoil of civil unrest in the 1960s and 1970s. The Caucasian boy became an Alabama State Trooper during the height of Civil Rights demonstrations and spent thirty years in Law Enforcement and tells his unique view of the time.
