Making Ends Meet: Life Lessons From Locust Street] - Paperback

by Dorothy Blakley (Author)

There are many ways to become successful in life. So many right and wrong paths to follow. Which did The Reverend Dr. Dorothy Blakley take in her childhood journey from the segregated dirt roads of rural Alabama to the paved city streets of St. Joseph, Missouri? Her inspirational book "Making Ends Meet: Life Lessons From Locust Street" tells of the struggles and triumphs of The Stewart Family (from largely segregated World War II Era America through the desegregated 1960's) and how it shaped the life of its middle child (Dorothy). Filled with spiritual and practical guidance that helped many "make ends meet" in tough times, the book is also an interesting history lesson on how the road to success has widened since integration and become even more accessible to many different people than before.
