Nothing explains this book more than the subtitle, "The Reflections of a Sharecropper's Daughter - Family, Poverty, Potential, and Progress," that refers to the journey of the daughter of a sharecropper who became the first African-American female Superintendent in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. The joys and pains as a family in the south, along with some challenges and successes as a leader, are revealed. Though this book is about the life of Annie P. Wimbish, it is certain that many can scribe their names in these pages and find themselves, or someone they know, here.
