Publisher's Synopsis
Growing up in Baltimore, Maryland, author Jonathan Marshall spent his young life in a high crime neighborhood where making poor choices were a form of survival. Growing up on the streets and the effects of a dysfunctional school system led to a turbulent life that included imprisonment, homelessness, assault, and frequent interactions with law enforcement.
Finding redemption later in life and in recovery from toxic family relationships, Marshall wrote his memoir to tell the true stories about living in the ghetto.
His is the real voice of a violent upbringing on the rough streets of Baltimore City in the '70s, '80s, and '90s, as well as the remarkable strength it took to be able to turn things around and build a better life after violence. Readers will find his story honest, raw, and genuinely insightful.
