"Growing up homeless on the streets of Florida wasn't as much fun as my dad thought it would be. To him, a beat up Ford was a permanent address and a pistol meant a steady paycheck. To me, an eleven-year-old kid, it was a constant, lonely struggle for survival amongst thieves, predators, and killers. I only wish that's where it began and ended. This is my story so far." - Bobby Howell --------- From losing his family at the hands of a sociopathic father, to his eventual quest to bring justice to the very same man who gave him life, The Different One is a compelling autobiography about a boy surmounting monumental odds on the path to becoming a man. Written in a conversational style, Bobby Howell takes us through his tumultuous journey from childhood to adulthood, sharing true accounts of events from the heartwarming to the horrific in an honest and soul-searching voice that will leave even the most callous of readers speechless.
