About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 I grew up hearing my father, who was white, say that he was just as good as anyone else, but no better. I chose to believe him, and grew up believing that I was equal to anyone.
#2 White Sulphur Springs, located in the Allegheny Mountains, was a popular vacation destination for the wealthy in the 1800s. It was there that my father met my mother, who was a waitress at the resort. They married in 1909.
#3 During World War I, President Woodrow Wilson created the US Food Administration to manage the conservation, distribution, and transportation of food during wartime. Herbert Hoover was appointed to lead the agency. Hoover appealed to Americans to reduce their consumption of meat, wheat, fats, and sugar so that there would be more food to send to soldiers.
#4 During World War I, my father was exempt from the draft because he was married and had four children. He was still required to register, but he qualified for a hardship provision under the law.

#5
Daddy had built a bigger house than the old farmhouse, and it was in a colored community. We had many good neighbors, and we attended the same church as the Black families.
#6
I loved my church street community, but I often visited the country with my father.
