General Mickey

by Peter Lappin

This is the true story of a dead-end youngster who fought his way against great odds up the ladder of self-conquest to final success through Christianity. Chock-full of thrilling, humorous and touching episodes, Mickey Magone's adventures through the hectic years of Italy's industrial revolution make one feel as though the incidents are happening in one's own neighborhood. This book is a must read for parents, teachers and all who are concerned with the problems of youth and growing up. Here is a young heart laid bare with all its problems, anxieties, rebellions, frustrations and fears. Here is the problem pattern, how it starts, thinks, feels, reacts and grows. And here is what to do about it! Every page is as soundly practical as it is inspiring.
