Up From The Bottom

With raw honesty and shocking vulnerability, Isaac Ford, Jr. shares his journey of tragedy, resilience, forgiveness, and unconditional love. This powerful, unforgettable memoir recounts the author's childhood in the late seventies and early eighties in East Augusta, Georgia affectionately known as ';The Bottom,' and a tragic childhood event that changed the trajectory of his life in very unpredictable ways. But forty years later, a chance encounter with his Child Protective Services (CPS) caseworker forced him to confront difficult memories. His incredible story inspires other survivors to believe that you can heal and grow from traumatic events and adversity, and you don't have to be defined by them.
