Book Overview

This Butler was never meant to serve anyone. Roosevelt Claude Lincoln Butler is his Christian name. Born in rural Mississippi to sharecroppers, his early childhood is blessed with the simple pleasures of a large loving family and the naivety of youth. But soon tragedy strikes and he and his family move up North in search of better opportunities. Roosevelt Claude Lincoln Butler learns that Gary, Indiana is a far cry from the simple life of Winona, Mississippi. Now he is forced to grow up fast and must prove himself in this new place. He begins running the streets, fighting, hustling, and using drugs. Eventually, our Protagonist realizes that this is no way to live, and things must change. Roosevelt Claude Lincoln Butler makes up his mind to change his circumstances, including battling his substance abuse problem. In doing so, he learns that there are still some demons that one cannot outrun. But Roosevelt Claude Lincoln Butler is determined to persevere. And he does indeed. He learns that he is more than the sum of his parts, and if he believes in himself he can overcome anything!
