The love letter sets the tone for the rest of the book in it’s ability to get to the heart of the matter.

Verifying the honest and emotional truth to the stories. I saw the Black men (and in one case my grandmother) that meant a great deal in my life through out this book. Told by African-American women from various perspectives, age and background, this book sings (I mean Aretha Franklin SINGS) the praises of men that provided shelter, laughter, and wisdom packaged in love and total acceptance in their lives. A book filled with laughter, heartache, inspiration, comfort, heart-mending and at times out right flattery.
