More down-east yarns by grandma

"Author Otis S. Johnson was born in Savannah, Georgia, in 1942. It was his intent to use his life's journey as an example of how people, especially of his generation, had to struggle with being called the N word all of their lives no matter how much they achieved in society. He decided to be politically correct with the title, but the contents in the book reflect his life as a black person living in the United States of America. The book documents his journey through the Jim Crow era, the civil rights movement, affirmative action, becoming mayor of Savannah, Georgia, and now experiencing the positives and negatives of being black during the period of having the nation's first African American president."--Provided by publisher.
