Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was born in an eighteen-room house owned by my mother’s sister Rose and her husband. After a couple of weeks, my mother took me back to her place in Jamaica, Queens, where we lived with my four-year-old sister, Marion, my mother’s mother, her three sisters, and a Swedish carpenter named Mack. #2 I was raised by my mother, who was very cold. I never got a kiss, a hug, or a compliment. I wanted people to tell me that I was good, but instead, I heard laughter and applause. #3 I had to make my own entertainment as a kid. I would listen to the voices below my window, and know what that meant. There was going to be a fight down there, and I would always identify with the loser. #4 My mother was coldhearted and selfish, and her sisters weren’t much better. I remember being lied to by my aunt Pearlie when I was four. She said I could go to the movies with my sister, but when I came back out, she and Marion were gone. I stood there crying and yelling, Pearlie, I washed my hands and face real good.
It tells a story of grandparents in the 1800s as judges in Missouri and those on the Supreme Court of Missouri on my mother's side of the family, then Congressman Frank W. Boykin of Mobile, Alabama, on my father's side of the family. Some highlights from the manuscript: Congressman Boykin started the multiethnic, multireligious Kounter Klan to challenge the corrupt Ku Klux Klan in Alabama and other Southern States.

Boykin's suggestion is untold history setting the English Channel ablaze during World War II and helped thwart the Nazi invasion of the country of England.

Charlton Heston was proposed to star in it, and the title was trademarked called Everything Is Made for Love, Frank Boykin's motto for over forty years. It tells of sexual and physical abuse, bullying through childhood to adulthood, divorces, being conned, and the con receiving seven years in prison, having four fathers from age two to fourteen.

This book I would hope would open the minds of alot of people who refuse to accept the greatness of the afro- american, and all those who climb from the bottom, and want to be recognize for their glory and not their short comings.In the mist of this day i want people to know they can achieve anything they set out to achieve, and don't let no one tell you different. When putting these poems together my theme was for us to rise as people and stop killing one another and start helping one another, for now is the time to rise, for tomorrow may overcome your true radiance!
Joseph Heller's rollicking novel, Catch-22, used black humor to point out, and point up, the inanities and insanities experienced by men at war. In a similar vein, It's Too Late to Leave Early employs plain vanilla humor to illustrate the frustrations and idiocies common to an industry the author, a former aerospace engineer, knows all too well. You'll meet many outrageous characters a one time porn queen who's into blackmail; the wealthy great-grandson of a Russian aviation pioneer who'lll do anything to get back the company he believes was "stolen" from his family; a former Air Force lieutenant colonel who reinvents himself as a totally inept favorite of management; a wannabe Western film star who's never been within fifty yards of a horse; an ultra-paranoid executive vice president and general manager; a nymphomaniacal lady scheduler and sundry others all of whom are embroiled in situations ranging from the ridiculous to the sublime, and beyond. Enjoy!
