I have had the privilege of investing in and reading one of the best books I have ever read in my whole life, next to the Holy Bible. This kind of book truly is a National Treasure and demands that we call attention to it in a bigger way, which I’ll do by hosting a business book club. This 90-Day Book Club is now available for you to subscribe at BookClub.wahmswin.com

This totally EPIC book is called:

On Her Own Ground: The Life and Times of Madam C.J. Walker by A’lelia Bundles

Ms. A’lelia Bundles is both Madam C.J. Walker’s biographer and her great-great grand daughter. The research she has done (and is still doing for another family member’s biography) was not just academic in nature, but also deeply personal and moving, which shines through in every section of the book. This also shines through in her blog, which is truly a nice continuation of what she started with the book. You can interact with her and see links to her most recent articles on her Facebook fan page for the book. Also, be sure to register for the COAST Calls so you don’t miss her live plus question and answer session.

It would make an excellent text book for middle school and older students. I also plan to use portions of the book to help me educate my home schooled elementary age children. I know in my heart of hearts that if I neglect to share this knowledge and wisdom with my own children, that would be a huge Mom-Teacher FAIL on my part.

African American History IS American History. I truly believe this book, and the Walker family, are an American Treasure. Please make the time to read it … but be forewarned that this is a well-researched book, and it will take time to finish it. So, set a goal of how much you want to read every day/week, and then slowly take it in over time so that you can really grasp all of the knowledge. And, if you want some other great folks to help hold you accountable about reading this whole book, join our 90-Day Book Club at BookClub.wahmswin.com.

Also, please be sure to pass the knowledge in this book on to those who you care about. Remember to use the social tools on this page to share this review with your friends and family.
