This book illustrates and tells about the life and events of my childhood that matured into adulthood. Most of the descriptive events of my childhood are true and some occurrences were told to me by my parents and family members with a colorful emphasis of my life I had experienced growing up to be the man I'm today, "The Last Man Standing" My book is unlike most books of black ethnics growing up in the metropolitan inner-city ghetto of the nation's poverty stricken neighbor hoods faced with all adversities that most blacks experienced, but a more telling of my life and how as a Black American I was forced to become the man I'm in my own right, and how I encouraged my self-entrance of family, love, education, and most important influence of religious aspect of my life.
