About this ebook

This unique book is a rare find. The author takes the reader on a myriad of real-life experiences and emotions. It is no wonder that the author has been chosen as the new Mark Twain by many circles.

Have you ever heard of someone who has listened firsthand a person who lived through the civil war? The author has. Have you ever had to confront a close family member about a life-threatening habit? The author has. Have you ever dreamed of a storybook childhood riddled with unbridled happiness in one moment, with gut-wrenching emotions the next? The author has and writes it beautifully.

This is a feel-good story from beginning to end. This is a Kleenex-nearby story.

Imagine the exhilaration of a seventeen-year-old kid who simply hears and obeys his best friend, famous physician who happens to be his dad who's instructed the author how to deliver a baby. The author has…six times.

Ride with the author as he takes you along with his trusty rifle and his ever-faithful German shepherd dog named Fella as they frolic through the deep woods of rural Mississippi. This was a tumultuous time for our history. During the 1960s and 1970s, when civil unrest was not the exception, it was the norm.

Have you ever consoled a friend, whose skin happened to be black, when a field close by his home had just been burned by the KKK? The author has.

Have you ever been scared for your life in the present of an operational alcohol-producing still? The author has.

Have you ever had an ever-faithful companion who happened to have four legs? This dog is nothing short of amazing. He is a trusted friend and ally for an entire decade. He defends and keeping it ever closer to watch her brother. He is a well-trained German shepherd, willing and able to do his master's bidding.

Have you ever seen up close and personal racial injustice an inequality? The author has.

Have you ever stood by a close friend who was a man of color, wow he was being spit upon, and scorned simply because of the color of his skin? The author has.

The author has a knack for getting underneath your fingernails and scratching a chalkboard with them while you are enjoying the pain. He has a rare gift, setting himself apart from most other authors.

What rare find it is when one can enjoy the variety of stories, experiences, and emotions found in one book. This is truly a gift.

Enjoy!
