If this book were fiction you would find it preposterous, the fact that it's true makes it affecting and inspiring. I picked up to read because I am helping a college freshman with a term paper that analyzes this book. It seemed it would help him along if I knew the material too. I am enriched for the experience as the student predicted I would be when he talked about the book. Gregory Williams is now the President of the University where this student is taking the course. That is a testament to Williams' determination, brilliance and forgiving nature. He takes on his ardous journey from believing he's a white child in a loving but volatile home to being abandoned by his birth mother and finding out he's the result of a mixed marriage and considered black. His life with various relatives on his father's side is a nightmare until an angel on earth in the form of a woman in the neighborhood takes him along with his younger brother. She shares her meager possessions and her enormous faith with these young boys. Sadly, Williams accepts her gifts and finds his own strength, things don't go as well for his younger brother. You will be frustrated at the patriarch of this family and uplifted by Williams as he makes his way in the world despite overwhelming odds.
