Book excerpt: S. Earl Wilson III is the author of eight books prior to this one. All his previous books, with the exception of two, have been fiction. In this book, this Mississippi writer, a Morehouse College graduate, pens a uniquely loveable and humorous recollection of the travels and adventures of the renowned Cotton Blossom Singers of the Piney Woods School of Piney Woods, Mississippi, during the fifties. Here, he invites you to travel along, sing, endure the hardships and pain, and rejoice in the success of these six special young girls as they pave the road for the benefit of others. This story is not a must-read––it is a should-read. You’ll be elated if you do and sorry if you don’t!
