A Young Man's Journey With AIDS: The Story of Nick Trevor 2 reviews Luellen Reese
Franklin Watts, 1998
Excellent and true
+ A Young Man's Journey with AIDS
Knowing nick in life did not take away the impact this book had on me. It tells his story and does it well. I commend Nicks mother for her courage in taking the time to write this story to share with everyone. I can only hope that this story has as much of an impact on people as Nick did in life.
