Elizabeth's Daughter: There's Power in Adversity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692868249)

Author Sharon Alston encountered adversity at an early age. Her father was a controlling, jealous, and violent man, and Alston witnessed her father's domestic abuse and eventual murder of her mother, events that changed her life and that of her brother, Derek, forever. Elizabeth's Daughter shares the story of Alston's life, considering in particular the effects of this violence early on in her childhood. She reviews a myriad of hardships in her life from 1961 to 1992, but she also demonstrates how she learned to use her own power from the pain of adversity to push forward. Although hers is a tale of family turmoil and violence, it is equally a human story of healing, forgiveness, and triumph. Through her personal history, Alston hopes others may transform their own lives and be inspired to conquer their own difficulties. Passionate and compelling, this memoir shares both the traumatic and positive aspects of one woman's childhood and reveals how her experiences shaped who she is.
