Synopsis
In Baltimore City during the Great Depression, six-year-old Smitty is a hard working shoeshine boy despite his lame arm. Each member of his family does their part, so young Smitty drops his hard-earned coins into the coffee can labeled "Rent." The Smiths might be money poor, but they're rich with love and laughter. Though his parents try Smitty can't be protected from the ugliness - the cruel prejudice that waits outside the boundaries of their poor, colored neighborhood called Sandtown. As a teenager Smitty's world crumbles when he learns the heartbreaking truths of his unwanted birth and mixed up family tree. Convinced he's a nobody he runs away from home and begins his search for significance. It takes nearly dying and the unwanted friendship of a white man for Smitty to discover the somebody he was born to be. Dr. Tony Evnas wrote the foreword for this biographical novel based on the life of his uncle Rev. Dr. James Smith, a major influence in Evans' formative years. "The Legacy of Nobody Smith" is based on interviews recorded during the last month's of Smith's life. He reflected on the fears that plagued him, the father who loved him, and the faith that carried him. With honesty and tenderness Smitty shared about becoming best friends with a white man, years before "racial reconciliation" was a fashionable phrase. Rich with history and humor, every page of "The Legacy of Nobody Smith" invites readers to witness the life of an insignificant nobody discovering he's actually the cherished child of a loving God. Profits to benefit The Urban Alternative and The Helping Up Mission of Baltimore. "Ms. Payne masterfully immerses the reader in a time gone by." Julie Zine Coleman, Author of "Unexpected Love" (Thomas Nelson, 2013), Dr. Tony Evans ' foreword to The Legacy of Nobody Smith honors the life, love and ministry of his uncle, the Reverend James "Smitty" Smith - "a major influence and model" during Evans' growing up years in Baltimore. The faithful father. Charlie Smith's lean body and broad shoulders are proof he's a hard worker. He's a hod carrier. All day long he carries bricks and cement to the skilled workers on the construction site. In Baltimore's summer heat and humidity or raw winter winds, Charlie carries his load humming hymns, grateful to be able to provide for his family during the Great Depression. The troubled teen. Smitty Smith is a happy, energetic boy secure in his family's love. Daddy and Mama try their best to protect Smitty from the ugliness - the cruel prejudice that waits beyond the borders of their poor neighborhood. Yet on the front marble steps of his home, 15-year old Smitty's world crumbles when he discovers the secrets his parents have kept carefully hidden. Heartbroken by truth and convinced he's a nobody, Smitty leaves all he's ever known and runs away into a world at war with Hitler. The unprepared pastor. Decades later corporate professional Irv Basil follows God's call into the ministry. Seminary prepares Irv for many things - being a white pastor in Baltimore City is not one of them. When he encounters trouble and needs rescuing, Irv reaches out to a more experienced pastor named Rev. James "Smitty" Smith. But Smitty and Irv are about as opposite as two men can be. And all Smitty's life he's never had a reason to trust a white man. Why start now? What difference would it make? Author Leslie Basil Payne's first novel weaves a uniquely American tale of fatherhood, faith and friendship. Based on interviews given at his kitchen table, this biographical novel is rich with history and humor telling Smitty's story in his unique voice. So pull up a chair, join Smitty at his table. And witness the life of an insignificant nobody discovering he's actually the cherished child of a loving God. 2017 Selah Awards Finalist What Readers Are Saying: "I felt so many emotions while reading this book but could not put it down. Awesome, awesome read " Terri W., Amazon Customer This story speaks to the power of faith and perseverance in the face of bigotry and hate. Patrick D., Amazon Customer This is an amazing book. I cried so many tears, not because it was sad, but because of the real love that radiated off the pages and leaped into my heart to challenge me to be a better Christian. Kindle Customer "An inspiring historical novel with a message for today: in the eyes of God each of us is a somebody." Kurt L. Schmoke, University of Baltimore President and Former Mayor of Baltimore This book made me think about the things I take for granted. It was wonderfully written, as if I was there.
