More About This Book

Overview

In this scintillating, heart-wrenching and tear-eliciting autobiography, "From New Mills to New Life", Joshua Spencer shares his extraordinary experiences from birth to his fiftieth year. It starts in Albion, Montego Bay where the author was born, but where he spent the least of his life of half of a century. It then extends to several other areas of his native land, but finds as its pivot a small, impoverished district known as New Mills where he spent much time in a little ?shamble?, he called home with his grandmother. A home that lacked the basic facilities and necessities such as electricity and water. "From New Mills to New Life" radiates back and forth to its pivot but in an orderly, sequential fashion, until it culminates in Canada. It exposes all the challenges and successes that the author experiences in both jurisdictions, including family challenges, being on the verge of bankruptcy and so on. It describes quite liberally, his weaknesses and his strengths; those challenges he conquers and those he approaches optimistically in the future. You will cry intermittently, laugh regularly, and even get deeply saddened sporadically, as you share in this masterpiece, "From New Mills to New Life".
