I have been a voracious reader since I learned how. I have read hundreds of books and for the first time in about 55 years, I can pick a favorite. I am so glad that this story was told. This book was eloquently written and portrayed a great deal of love and respect and the story was so riveting, I couldn’t put it down. I treasure my autographed copy of this amazing book.
