Description

"Many people write about the ghetto. Piri Thomas lived there. In this book, the author of 'Down these mean streets" tells what he found when he returned from a seven-year prison term. Friends dying on heroin, or getting rich selling it. Jobs he couldn't get, not because he lacked training or ability, but because the union was only open to whites. And an indomitable aunt who brought him to her church, where he met the woman who became his wife, and where he began to take an interest in helping others."--Jacket.
