    About this ebook

    As a gifted storyteller, the author captures the readers’ imagination with riveting accounts of the events that shaped his young life. He leads the reader through a spellbinding sequence of events; which uncover the remarkable stories of his past. These stories bring to life his family of orientation, their lives in the rural segregated south, their financial struggles, and their indestructible bond even as tragedy struck.

    Sturdivant lays the ground-work in his native Arkansas. This epic heartwarming story about a family’s struggle in the south takes place in the twentieth century. It uncovers many tales of good versus evil with good eventually winning out. Follow the author as he discloses why the railroad in Chelford was necessary for the efficient functioning of the economy there and how human life was fractured for the families and the community after it disappeared.
