When Maggie Comer left abject poverty in the rural South, she never dreamed she would become the mother of five children who share thirteen college degrees.

Told through Maggie's own words and through those of her son James-an award-winning child psychiatrist and brilliant educator-Maggie's American Dream is an unforgettable chronicle of courage, resourcefulness, and pride.

Together, the memories of mother and son form an engrossing history of one black family's struggle for freedom and equality, as well as a compelling testimonial for the life-changing power of education.

This is the story of a woman, poor and black, who realized her own American dream of opportunity and education for her children.
