About the Book

Urban Warrior is the story of one man's mission to "Change the world starting with Detroit." This biography begins with the passion of John George as he tells his story of trying to protect his children and family from the blight and degradation caused by drug dealers and crime surrounding his home. While John takes it upon himself to bring order and a safe environment to his neighborhood he soon discovers a bigger problem. The injustice in his community is pervasive throughout Detroit - it is a mission he will take on with a belief that the impossible is possible! John George's own endorsement gives the reader the best perspective of the vivid portrayal of his journey and the dynamic journalistic style used by the author. "With only a Bic lighter illuminating their path, they tried to negotiate the fallen beams and garbage. The hole was filled with discarded mattresses that were beds for the homeless and a resource for prostitutes. They could only hold their breath for so long before the putrid smell of urine and decomposition would fill their lungs. "Man, you are really crazy?" I remember that day like it was yesterday but when I read this excerpt in Urban Warrior, I felt like I was there for the first time, searching through the decay and envisioning what tomorrow would look like. Each chapter flows from one to the other, not just telling the story of Blight Busters but bringing it to life in just the way I feel I have lived it. Kishell has done more that capture my sentiments - she has embraced the emotion and personal depth of what I feel. In her own way, Kishell has made the impossible, possible. I am not a writer or a poet but I am devoted to my mission to rebuild Detroit and Kishell has spoken with my spirit bringing to life this passion of mine in a way I would never be able to in written word. As you read Urban Warrior I hope you are instilled with the same passion and become to know better this corner of Northwest Detroit, where I call home. I thank you for supporting our mission and ask that you continue on the journey with me and my friends on the sidewalks of Detroit rebuilding it one house, one street, one neighborhood at a time. Peace John George Kishell, has written also under the name of Lynne Kishel Huff with the published non-fiction parenting book, Thank You for All You've Done for me. She is an advocate for justice and youth and recipient of the Unsung Hero's Recognition for the work she has done within the community.
