George Dawson's remarkable autobiography reflects on his life and shares valuable lessons in living, offering a fresh, firsthand view of America during the twentieth century. Born into slavery, Dawson learned to read at 98 and lived to be 103, reflecting on the hardships and happiness he experienced. Dawson's story is one of perseverance and character, as he navigates the challenges of segregation, civil rights, wars, and presidential eras. Through his voice and view of the world, he offers insights into humanity, history, and the power of education. A testament to Dawson's hard-won education, this autobiography is a feel-good story that inspires readers with its message: "Life is so good. I do believe it's getting better."
