In this candid spiritual memoir, legendary actor Sidney Poitier reflects on life itself as he reveals the spiritual depth, passion, and intellectual fervor that has driven his remarkable life. Poitier credits his childhood of poverty on idyllic Cat Island in the Bahamas for equipping him with the unflinching sense of self-worth, family values, and simple ethics that he has never since surrendered and that have dramatically shaped his world.

I purchased this book as a gift and as always Overstock came through with impressive results. The book is paperback, for those of you who prefer a hard back.
I bought this book for my fiancée and he loved it. It is a great read. He said it was beautifully written. Personally I have been a great fan of Mr. Poitier. I collect his movies, so acquiring this book was awesome for me. When he returns the book to me I will read it also. I whole heartedly recommend this fine work of art.

I absolutely loved this book, Mr. Poiter shares my views on spirituality and I was very excited to see my feelings on paper, especially being written by Sidney Poiter! I have always felt that he was a special person, and after having endured the spirit breaking forces he dealt with, he still remains triumphant.
