Very Collectible by One of My Best Friends

This is a rare book worthy of your coffee table. Written by a Richmond educator and artist, the book explores the writer and mother's ancestry and culture. The book is intellectually, visually, and physically appealing, published in fine quality with some vintage photographs. Great layout and artistic concept. Highly Collectible! --Larry D. Giles, Retired Fellow Educator and Writer
