Workin' Our Way Home: The Incredible True Story of a Homeless Ex-Con and a Grieving Millionaire Thrown Together to Save Each Other
Autor Ron Hallen Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 feb 2018
Workin’ Our Way Home describes the ten years Ron and Denver lived together after Miss Debbie’s death. Written in both Ron’s and Denver’s unique voices, their inspiring (and often hilarious) adventures include:
- Their sometimes-bizarre life together in the Murchison Mansion
- Denver accidentally almost burning the house down—twice
- The challenges involved with making a movie
- Two visits to the White House
- Traveling the country to raise awareness about homelessness
- And much more!
Denver said it best: “Whether we is rich or whether we is poor, or somethin' in between, this earth ain’t no final restin' place. So in a way, we is all homeless—ever last one of us—just workin our way home.”
