This is an absolutely unbelievable story, written by the man who lived it. I couldn't put it down. What a success against such odds. It was amazing to me to see the treatment Gregory received growing up in Muncie in the 1950s and 60s. I'll never forget this book. I read it three or four years ago and the story is still with me. You won't regret reading this one.

I had to read this book for a class, but it was one of the best books I've ever read.

A haunting biography that everyone should read...portrays the 40's-50's south in a manner few I've read have...

I originally read this book about 10 years ago and was fascinated with the story. I found it was thoughtful and well-written. Of course, the subject matter is compelling and evokes various emotions. I've picked it for my book club to read and will be interested to get feedback at the next meeting.

As a follow-up to the book, it is interesting to know what happened to the author. Dr. Gregory Williams is now the President of the University of Cincinnati.
