Review: Forrest Gump move over!  Here comes JIMMIE BARNES!
Rating: 5 out of 5

This wonderfully written novel was so believable that I told a lady that I thought it was a memoir!  It's so interesting how Jimmie keeps moving through history, and seemingly experiences nearly every major event (with the exception of VietNam) from pre-Civil War to present day (1988).  What I did not anticipate was the twist at the end of the book!  I commend the author's creativity and use of true events to carry the story of JIMMIE BARNES!  A MUST READ, especially if you have any interest in the plight of post-slavery, African-Americans!
