This is a story of a unique African girl born in a small western nation and into a tribal culture, one with meager assets and opportunities. She is to face enumerable disadvantages, including: early, unwanted invitations to marry; early losses of her basic family unit; being raised as a working girl away from her village and lacking any support or help to be schooled. What she does have is a marked intelligence; faith that she will succeed; the temperament of being kind to all she meets: and the ultimate knowing, with a little patience and occasional discussions with God; achievement is not only possible: but is to be her way through to a satisfactory life. One can hardly read this autobiography without feeling the elan that surely she will succeed as she take us on the pathway of this journey. It is a consuming adventure to accompany this Fatima Barry and note how she does it. . . . Dr. Mike O'Brien, Austin, Tx
