Description:
A young black man`s search to uncover his white mother`s past and his own identity. Born in Poland, the daughter of a rabbi, James McBride`s mother grew up in the Southern United States, ran away to Harlem, married a black man and founded a Baptist church, and then proceeded to put 12 children through college. McBride examines her life, his own childhood in Brooklyn`s Red Hook housing projects, and the force of his mother`s love which guided his and his siblings` lives.

I loved this book so much that I purchased three copies. One for myself, one for my sister and another for a co-worker. It's a must read.
