Review
"'Condi reveals the sheer drive and intelligence that lead a young black girl from racist, segregated Alabama to excel at everything she loved...The most powerful black woman in the history of America.' Sunday Times 'A pleasure to read... Antonia Felix makes two facts of life luminously clear: the importance of a stable family in a child's development, and, second, the importance of parents in introducing their offspring to a world of expanding educational opportunities. Miss Rice... had the immeasurable benefits of both circumstances.' Washington Times"
