| Publisher Description: Starting life in the largest slum in the world and growing up in an abusive orphanage was just the beginning of Mark Bennett's difficult journey. He went on to fight World War II in the malaria-infested jungles of the southwest Pacific, struggle through the dysfunctional world of Hollywood, escape the ticker-tape trap of Wall Street.....and more. My Father is the moving and inspiring true story of a man who demonstrated rare courage, strength, and extraordinary character in the face of adversity. And, at its heart, it is the story of a profound bond between a father and son that launched a marathon struggle for social change and justice following the greatest betrayal of all. It is a poignant, powerful, and riveting American saga. |
