Two Interesting Books I've Read!

On this blog, I will occasionally give book reviews. Here are a couple of books I've read that to me are must reads! The two books: "In His Way" by Rebecca Duvall and "The Five Negro Presidents" by: J. A. Rogers.

I want to start off first with my thoughts on "In His way" by: Rebecca Duvall. I will not give any spoilers because I want people to read it for themselves. "In His Way" is a very inspirational book. The author, Mrs. Duvall writes about the trials and tribulations that she's been dealing with in her personal life. The title talks about how she used to be "In His (God's) Way" but now she's letting God use her. There's something a lot of us Christians, and even Christians can learn by reading her book. Whether Christian or not, people will be inspired by reading this book. One thing  I was reminded by while reading this book is...that with Jesus there's always hope!

Here are a few links to her books:

"The Five Negro Presidents" is a book that will open the eyes of those who read it. This book was recommended to me by someone I know. So I decided to buy it. I was curious. Could this be possible? Obama wasn't the first black President? Who is covering up this lie from the masses and why? This book was written by J. A. Rogers, a black journalist, in 1965. Yes I said it, originally published in 1965! So when the Civil Rights Movement was going on, this book was in existence? The book like the title says, chronicles the stories of 5 U.S. Presidents that had black/African ancestry. One of the men was even quoted, by reporters, as saying "who knows one of my ancestors may have jumped the fence" when asked about his possible black ancestry. I recommend this book for all regardless of race! Four of these men are named in the book, but I don't want to give away spoilers. All I will say is a couple of men who signed the Declaration of Independence are believed to have had black ancestry. Most of the men mentioned in this book, if not all, are well known. The 5th man is not mentioned in this book by name. Why is that? There could be possible theories. I know the unnamed 5th man was still living at the time the book was originally released. The other 4 were deceased. I hope that didn't spoil it for you. I desire everyone to read "The Five Negro Presidents". Get it today!
