Tale of a Mother’s Love, Uniquely Manifest, in My Father's Hands, Published by Outskirts Press

Aurora, CO, February 02, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published My Father's Hands: A Secret Daughter's Story of Courage, Forgiveness, Discovery, and Reconciliation by Ruth A. Haugh-Smith. The author's most recent book to date is a 5.5 x 8.5 paperback in the autobiography and personal memoirs category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/my-fathers-hands was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.

Ruth A. Haugh-Smith was just eleven years old when her mother pulled her aside and revealed the truth about her father, but it would take fifty years for that long-forgotten memory to resurface, sparking a quest to discover just what happened between her mother and the physician she knew only as Doctor Huff.

My Father’s Hands: A Secret Daughter’s Story of Courage, Forgiveness, Discovery and Reconciliation details Smith’s incredible journey as she sets off in search of the mysterious man and the reason behind her mother’s actions so long ago. What she finds turns the fragmented, half-remembered shards of memory into a full-color panorama of a time, place, and love that would forever change her life, as well as the lives of those around her.

Vividly drawn and richly detailed, this remarkable memoir provides unique insight into the complicated relationships that existed between men and women in Oklahoma, Missouri and Kansas during the early years of the American civil rights movement. It is about the things a mother does to give her children a better life. It is about the love between a father and daughter -- even against all odds. Mostly, it is about forging the courage necessary to discover the truth that lies within ourselves.

92 pages in length, My Father's Hands:: A Secret Daughter's Story of Courage, Forgiveness, Discovery, and Reconciliation is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the autobiography and personal memoirs category.
