Publisher Description:
Moody's famous autobiography is a classic work on growing up poor and Black in the rural South. Her searing account of life before the Civil Rights Movement is as moving as The Color Purple and as important as And Let Us Now Praise Famous Men. A history of our time . . . (and) a reminder that we cannot now relax.--Senator Edward Kennedy.
