Publisher's Description

A critically acclaimed #1 New York Times bestseller with more than one million copies in print! Now a major motion picture. Gritty with pain, betrayal, and brutality, this incredible true story also shines with an unexpected, life-changing love.

Meet Denver, raised under plantation-style slavery in Louisiana until he escaped the "Man" in the 1960’s by hopping a train. Untrusting, uneducated, and violent, he spends 18 years on the streets of Dallas and Fort Worth.

Meet Ron Hall, a self-made millionaire in the world of high-priced deals—an international arts dealer who moves between upscale New York galleries and celebrities.

It seems unlikely that these two men would meet under normal circumstances, but when Deborah Hall, Ron's wife, meets Denver, she sees him through God's eyes of compassion. When Deborah is diagnosed with cancer, she charges Ron with the mission of helping Denver.

From this request, an extraordinary friendship forms between Denver and Ron, changing them both forever. A tale told in two unique voices, Same Kind of Different as Me weaves two completely different life experiences into one common journey. There is pain and laughter, doubt and tears, and in the end a triumphal story that readers will never forget.

Continue this story of friendship in What Difference Do It Make?: Stories of Hope and Healing, available now. Same Kind of Different as Me also is available in Spanish.

Author/Artist Review

Author: Ron Hall
Located in: Dallas, Texas
Submitted: June 25, 2006

    Tell us a little about yourself.  I have been an art dealer most of my life and in the book, I told more about me than most folks will ever want to know!

    What was your motivation behind this project?  I was motivated to tell a great love story and honor my wonderful, faithful wife, Deborah, and the man of her dream, Denver!

    What do you hope folks will gain from this project?  That free food and government funds will keep people alive, but It takes love to make a change in their lives..Also, that homeless person you have been passing by for years might be your guardian angel and no matter what he or she looks like, THEY ARE THE SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT as you.....

    Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists?  Denver is the one who first suggested we "write ourselves a book" because according to him there ain't nobody gonna believe this story!!!

    Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know:  the profits from this book are going to the Union Gospel Mission and other ministeries that care for homeless
