"Autobiography of an American Orphan" - Memoir: What Is It Really Like to Be an Orphan in America?

By: Strategic Book Publishing and Rights Co, LLC
 
NEW YORK - Dec. 10, 2015 - PRLog -- Autobiography of an American Orphan is dedicated to the orphans of Mount Loretto.

Life in the 1950s in a New York City orphanage was not a nice place to be, especially for a four-year-old. In his gripping autobiography, Walter James reveals all the hardships that he, his siblings, and his fellow orphans endured for over a decade in Mount Loretto.

He pours his emotions into this gritty memoir, as he describes the relationships between the orphans, counselors, nuns, and priests, with an emphasis on how gang members and drug abusers in the institution shaped his life.

It was finally time to confront the demons that have controlled the author’s life. Although the book began as a psychological self-study, it ended up taking him to places he never thought he would visit again.

5-Star Barnes & Noble Reviews:

“The Autobiography of an American Orphan is not the tale of one orphan, but it is the tale of several orphans carefully woven into a larger-than-life literary piece. This book not only breaks the heart, but it mends the shattered heart on many fronts.”

“A penetrating and frightening account of what it means to be orphaned in America. This book is nothing short of fearless and searing. The Autobiography of An American Orphan will be translated and bellowed for years to come.”

“Bravo Walter for giving orphans everywhere a much needed voice.”
