Patches
Price range: $4.99 through $24.99
He was born a boy called “Patches.”
He will die as a retired General This is the promise in between. From the red clay of Alabama to the long gray line of West Point, PATCHES is the unforgettable story of John Henry Davis. After his dying father makes him swear to never quit school, a boy in patched overalls becomes the man of the house at thirteen. Against poverty, racism, and isolation, a teacher, a preacher, and a promise forge a path to the U.S. Army. Witness the journey of the only Black cadet in the West Point class of 1958 as he survives the silent treatment, the Vietnam jungles, and the halls of the Pentagon—all while carrying a worn-out suitcase and an unbreakable vow. For fans of A Soldier’s Promise and The Blind Side, this is a tribute to the grit that turns rags into stars.
