Description: Growing up in a very small city, Natchitoches, Louisiana, the oldest one in the Louisiana Purchase, author Bonita Grace Moses was not only the youngest sibling but also the only girl out of four brothers born to Elena Moses. She was reared by her mother and her grandmother, Georgiana Moses, in a small house that had three rooms. In Mama Shug: the Bridge Whom We Loved So Dearly, Moses shares her life story and how it was particularly influenced by her God-fearing grandmother, affectionately known as Mama Shug, who lived to the age of ninety-eight. This memoir narrates how Mama Shug quit school at age seven to care for her siblings, but she instilled the importance of a good education in her grandchildren. Full of wisdom, Moses' grandmother also preached how faith in the Lord was central to life. She was a woman who lived what she practiced. A testament to the strength, tenacity, spirituality, and love of Mama Shug, this memoir describes the life of one woman who paved the way and provided an important foundation, helping her grandchildren achieve success in the world.
