Book Details
“As a child I looked at my father and saw my future status as a man.”
In Codis Hampton II’s highly anticipated book, the author pays tribute to his late father, eloquently capturing the spirit and soul of Codis “Moz” Hampton, Senior. A dedicated family man, Moz touched everyone he met with his kind and generous personality and was held in high esteem by family, friends, and coworkers. Remembering Moz not only honors one man’s father and the rich heritage of family ties; the book also explores the broader themes of man’s career, social, and political expectations, the ramifications of individual choices, and other social commentary, both serious and humorous. It takes you on a ride through Moz’s Roots as far back as the beginning of the Civil War and explores the State of Arkansas role in it.
