    About Reviews Fans The Story

    THE STORY BEHIND THIS BOOK: Because of the trials and the tribulations that I as well as others have endured in our lives I wrote this book to be an inspiration to the reader. It is my intention to give hope to the hopeless, to be a friend to the friendless, and to give kind words and gestures allowing the reader to be able to stay in control. There is a little something to help to come out of the dark hole or corner, so that they will not continue to mold, maybe then they will be able to be more bold.
    It is to send a word so that, that tree that has be blocking the forest will begin to sway so as to get a better view. Many kind words are sent no matter what you may be going through.

    Hello Ladies! I fully agree with you about the whole AA authors lament. I often wonder if no one knew that the book was by an AA author, would it get more pub and a wider range of readership. The author's race does not really influence me when I decide that I want to read a book (I'm AA) but I wonder how many non AAs would read a book by an AA author just based on the very reason that you buy a book...the subject/story seems like a good read.

    America K says

    The Author of this book America King(alias Kevin Lee)is historically one of most important people of this century. With heritage that include Mohamed Ali, Coretta Scott King, Supreme and more . Being the first man reincarnated makes America unique if not iconic figure in american society .The last reining King (King George) of the 19th and 20th century . With the King reaching acurate age
    he steps back in family business . His love is music playing a behind the scenes role as ghost writer for many years . Now helping the future take Hip Hop to the next .... with a chapter included for everyone in the entertainment industry .
    So remember "The Children are the future and the future is bright"
