An adventurous childhood : an African-American coming of age story in New Bern, North Carolina / Malcolm Elliott.

Elliott, Malcolm, (Author).

Summary:

"For all those timid third generation teens who shed doubt on the childhood stories of their first generation relatives... Having grown up in eastern North Carolina, this memoir is a collection of real life short stories chronicling events in my life from birth through high school graduation. While my recollection was challenged in a few instances, the characters and incidents are real and about 97% accurate. I don't think kids grow up with much confidence, so in reading these stories, I hope you feel the apprehension, concern, confusion and indecision I experienced when trying to put them into words. If so, then it should be an enjoyable read." --Back cover.
