BOOK ON THE WAY 

About The Books

From Samuel's Pen

Samuel writes the way a man breathes after being underwater too long, desperate and grateful at the same time. He doesn’t chase awards or applause. He writes because some questions followed him for sixty years and he finally ran out of excuses. What you’ll find in these pages is not perfection. It’s survival.

The Minister Who Turned Gangster

A memoir. A confession. A miracle.

He preached with Mahalia Jackson. He ran with the Roman Lords. He robbed banks with a Bible in one hand and a .38 in the other.

This is the true story of a boy preacher who became a gangster, and lived to write about it.

A Chance to Learn

400 years of struggle. One man’s testimony.

Not a history lesson. A wake-up call.

Samuel Gilbert speaks honestly about racism, justice, politics, and faith. No filter. No fear. Just the truth about what it means to be Black in America.

That Beasty Frame

Love. Murder. Revenge. And a ghost who won’t leave.

A crime thriller with a supernatural twist.

When Buck’s best friend and the woman he loves are killed, he goes to war. But when Buck is shot, something strange happens. His spirit leaves his body, and watches as everyone he loves dies one by one.

Shenoi: The Angel of Knowledge

The questions your church won’t answer.

Was Jesus Black or White? Does heaven really exist? Why has the truth been hidden for centuries?
