Publisher's Synopsis
This is a poignant coming-of-age story about a young black boy, who left his northern life behind to spend his high school years in rural Arkansas in the 1950s.

The author shares with us simple wisdoms that have sustained him for over six decades. Readers, young and old, will be touched by The Wisdom of Uncle Babe.
