Excerpt from Prison, Camp and Pulpit: The Life of a City Missionary in the Slums; Talks and Tramps Here and There, the Record of an Eventful Life To begin at the beginning - I was born in 1846, May 2d, in the First Ward of the city of Oswego, N. Y. Oswego people know the sec tion well, especially the locality where I was born and reared? The Flats. There is no portion of the town which has sent out half so many toughs, or been the birthplace of so much riot, confusion and crime. People in other parts of the town have fanciqy named Seneca street, near which I was born, The Dead Line, be cause there was a time when no officer of the law, or respectable person from another ward, dared to cross it after nightfall; and, if he did, it was at his own peril.

"Once a respected, successful evangelist and pastor, educated in the country's best seminaries, Paul Carlin found himself an outcast of the church and stripped in a lonely, gray prison cell. But like a prodigal who had squandered his Father's wealth, he cried out to God. Here his odyssey begins. A minister who had taught thousands to believe, now confronted the most crucial struggle of his life: forgiving himself and those who hurt him. Discover the lessons he learned in this dynamic true story!"--Back.
Walter R. Tucker III is the author of the widely successful and inspiring Urban Classic "From Compton To Congress: His Grace For My Race," the first installment of his life's story. Now, in his second autobiographical installment, "From The Pit To The Pulpit: My Story For His Glory," Walter, the former U.S. Congressman, takes us deeper into his Christian testimony by taking us to the day when he surrenders himself to begin to serve his prison sentence for bribery at the Federal Prison Camp at Lompoc, California. On the day of his surrender, Walter is devastated, as he has to separate from his wife and children and go behind the walls of a foreboding place designed to instill nothing but punishment and depression. Nevertheless, Walter is determined to do prison ministry. Through the 18 months of his prison experience, we clearly see the hand of God working in his life, despite great opposition from the Prison Administration and skeptical prisoners. Despite being stripped of all his political power and resources, Walter's faith is irrepressible. His unflappability during the darkest days of his life become a source of inspiration to us all. Fasten your seat belts and open your hearts as you take a journey with Walter through the pit that God prepared to launch him to the pulpit he was always called to.
