My American journey

---

Colin Powell is the embodiment of the American dream. He was born in Harlem to immigrant parents from Jamaica. He knows the harsh street life. He overcame a barely unusual start at school. Then he joined the Army. The rest is history—Vietnam, the Pentagon, Panama, Desert Storm—but history hitherto known only on the surface. Here, for the first time, Colin Powell himself tells us how it happened, in a memoir distinguished by a genuine love of country and family, warm humor and a soldier's candor. An American's Journey is a powerful story about a life well lived and well told. It is also a view from the top of the American political landscape. At a time when Americans were disillusioned with their leaders, General Powell's passionate views on family, personal responsibility, and, in his own words, "the greatness of America and the opportunities it offers" inspired hope and presented a blueprint for the future. A truly interesting account, this is history with a vision.
