Book Review: |
|
My Father's Journey showcased a humble beginning that catapaulted to a full fledged successful life of a man whose trust and believe in God assisted him in achieving greater heights at a very short while. Pa. Nwokeafor started life at a very early age and tend to have absolved all the necessary cushion that geared him towards the obstacles and adversities of life. The book was constructively planned and the story very emotional and sometimes could place the reader in the protagonist's perspective.
