A well researched book of facts and accomplishments
This book is a short, compressed look at the life and career of Maya Angelou. The author presents a reasonable quantity of facts, family relationships, and personal journeys covering Maya’s childhood, books, music, variety of jobs, vast dance career, husbands and partners.  in addition to extensive traveling through the US, Europe, and Africa.<br /><br />The information presented is clear, concise, and meaningful. This is a good starter book for anyone searching for a different view of Ms. Angelou’s life and numerous accomplishments. I appreciated the section on Ms. Angelou’s homelessness as a young teen, and there were several facts presented that I had forgotten.
