5.0 out of 5 stars One in Twenty Million, November 12, 2007
By 
Darrell F. Musick (Berea, KY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Looking Beyond the Mountains (Paperback)
It is difficult enough for the average person in this life to figure out who he/she is--his/her relation to God, the universe, etc. But rarely has anyone faced a more angst-ridden confusion over identity than Steve Hammond. This is a unique story of gender confusion that lasted 25 years. And when the question was finally decided, inter-personal problems then plagued the writer. Hammond also shares childhood experiences growing up in dire poverty in the Eastern Kentucky mountains.
But what's most interesting is the writer's seeming transcendence of his problems and rendering his Job-like struggles with a lightness of style that reflects an uncommonly positive attitude.
Entertaining and inspiring.

5.0 out of 5 stars Looking Beyond the Mountains, November 5, 2007
This review is from: Looking Beyond the Mountains (Paperback)
This is a well written book and very interesting. This book really captures what a person goes through when born with a genital birth defect. Very engrossing and keeps your attention. Appalachia readers will love this book. Gurney Normans introduction into the book was wonderful and very detailed and informative in capturing Appalachia survival. I reccomend it highly.
