Your Mother Wears Combat Boots

By William Wilson

When Bill Wilson began teaching disadvantaged boys at an inner-city Detroit school in the 1950s weeks after his college graduation, he was intent on just keeping his job. What he didn't know was that his ambivalent relationship with his unruly students would end up charting a new course for his life. Your Mother Wears Combat Boots recalls the struggles of a new teacher searching for ways to teach a group of boys discarded by the mainstream schools as unteachable.
