Produktbeschreibung

What happens when an ordinary man from rural North Carolina refuses to accept an ordinary fate?

In A Turbulent Flight with a Smooth Landing, Randolph Baskerville delivers a deeply moving African American memoir rooted in truth, humility, and quiet resilience. Born to hard-working, God-fearing parents who farmed and ran a country store, Baskerville didn't inherit wealth, privilege, or prestige. However, he did inherit grit, faith, and a relentless belief in the power of education.

This is not the story of a prodigy or a superstar. It is the story of a Black man raised in the Jim Crow South who struggled with anxiety, racial inequality, and trauma but never stopped reaching higher. With no silver spoon or elite advantages, he fought his way through systemic barriers and inner doubts. He ultimately became a respected attorney and judge. Along the way, he encountered both setbacks and silent blessings. People and moments helped him soar even when the winds of life threatened to bring him down.

Written as a legacy for his granddaughters and as a guide for future generations, this legal memoir reflects the broader civil rights journey of many African Americans in the 20th century. It speaks to anyone who has ever questioned their worth, battled quiet fears, or wondered if they were enough.

A Turbulent Flight with a Smooth Landing is an inspiring testimony to perseverance, justice, and what becomes possible when opportunity meets preparation.

Order now and discover a story of dignity, hope, and the courage to keep flying.
