All I ever wanted her to say was, I love you, son, but I never heard those words from the day I was born until the day she died. Memories of life in the deep south during the days of racism, death, murder, rape, incest, hangings, and survival in a Catholic seminary will leave the reader in awe. Now in his 70s, the author describes his early life in a matter of fact, easygoing style, unravelling a journey that begins in Tuscon, Arizona with a train ride to Mississippi, then later through the west and ultimately to Alaska. How could these things have happened? How could people BE that way? In our politically correct times, we forget (or don t want to know) what it was like in a time when children weren't protected. Discarded by selfish parents, the author survived on his own from the age of nine, working for his "keep," then escaping and never looking back.
