Reviews
This book is sacred to me. I own an original copy. Sadly my dear friends who gave this book to me tore out the signature of the author- Thomas W. Talley.
Growing up as a child in Nashville, TN, attending segregated schools,I would visit the home of the McKelvey's and read this book. Years later, as an adult I was gifted this book by Mrs.McKelvey. Sacred.
