A Breed Apart : A Journey to Redemption

Summary: Quite A Journey
Review: I read this book in one sitting which is not something I have done in years. Once I started reading Mr. Woods Journey to Redemption I was fascinated by how someone who had come from so much especially a BLACK MAN could travel such an horrible road by choice, by adrenaline and not really by need (which is the reasoning one hears for so much of criminal activity). The message of this book spoke volumes. It did not whitewash the excitement and rush the author got from his criminal activity but it also did not sugarcoat his prison experience. This book should be a must read for teenage boys although I fear some of the graphic descriptions might prevent that. This book is magnificent even though it does venture into preaching at the end which a factor Mr. Woods can be forgiven given his "preaching" heritage.
