Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - I have learned over the years that there is no greater feeling of accomplishment than to give something of oneself in hopes that others will benefit from that gift. The idea was planted in my being by my father's way of raising his children. It grew in leaps and bounds and, in fact, was magnified when actually I began to listen to stories about my family history.I took those stories passed on to by my father, mother, grandmother, and other family members to form a story about my Grandmother Gracie Hampton. It was her lifestyle, environment, conditions and timeline in which lived, that is the story's anchor, and my inspiration. And make no mistake, even though I have used the real names of the Hampton's family central characters, and most relatives, all words written as dialog in this book are mine and mine alone.

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 548 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Mr. Hampton emails of continuous comments on sportswriter's/reporter's newspaper articles amused his friend. He also saw Hamp's raw talent of detailing facts or description of events. So much so that he noted the commentary was better than the articles. Our author took his friends' critique to heart. Already a very opinionated individual, he realized he loved to write comments on various subjects especially social issues of the day. He began publishing a newsletter that included blogs on a range of subjects, always using satire as way of explaining social ills/political comments.That led to authoring a story of his military assignment to South Korea. To date, Mr. Hampton's written five books. But his story of a boy arriving in Korea while leaving fourteen months later as a grown man is his first.In his semi-autobiographical debut, Author Codis Hampton II takes the reader through his experience as a seventeen-year-old African-American GI stationed in South Korea during the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s.
