Book excerpt: From Then until Now: Short Memoirs of Eight African American Savannahians is a collection of personal stories that tell the life journeys of eight African American men born in Savannah, Georgia. These men write about their humble beginnings and how they experienced the challenges of growing up in the Jim Crow South, living in nurturing neighborhoods, developing a strong spiritual foundation, and having excellent caring teachers and mentors who encouraged them to "aim high in life." This collection of short memoirs will inspire readers, especially young readers, to know that it is not where or how you start that determines where you end up but a commitment to the slogan "You can make it if you try."
