David Sharp Livres

The Loop—or "London Outer Orbital Path"—is a 140-mile walking route around the capital’s periphery that utilizes the network of rural footpaths linking the secret ribbons of greenery that still survive amidst the suburban sprawl. In this guide the route is divided into fifteen sections, each representing a reasonable day’s walking and starting and finishing at locations readily accessible by public transport. Users of the guide will be astonished at the extent and variety of the countryside that still exists within the orbit of this "walker's M25" and at the number of fascinating sites—ancient woodlands, historic buildings and parklands, picturesque villages, rivers, canals, and nature reserves—to which the Loop will lead them.

In this autobiographical story set in the deep south of the United States during the turbulence of the 1960¿s, Dr. David Sharp recounts the life lessons that sparked the discovery of his own uniqueness, inner beauty, joy, passion and power. From the first understanding of himself as ¿different¿ he allows you inside his journey toward self-acceptance. He shares how he learned to claim who he really is, and shows you the people who helped him find the strength and courage to do so. You will see how truth, wisdom and humor are used not just to survive, but thrive; and how the ability to ¿dance the blues away¿ or ¿laugh, cry, complain and count your blessings at the same time¿ are two of the many heroic responses to life¿s deep pains. The story features Mbase, a long dead ancestor, who reaches through time to become part of the journey. He guides with wit and compassion and offers a reminder of the four powerful words that have echoed in their family through the generations. I¿m a Black Man, Who are You? is a triumph of the human spirit. It will inspire you to look at yourself ¿differently¿ and answer more clearly the grand question life asks¿ WHO ARE YOU?
