The Story of Johnny Cash Eaton...: Moments Remembered...His Story As Told to Me... Reviews:
A Foster Parent Remembers.... 
2009-12-08 - I met Johnny at a NY State Division for Youth residential center near Plattsburgh NY. I was a fairly new foster parent, in the process of meeting my third foster son. Johnny was a skinny, blonde kid with an impish smile - and a challenge. Our first visit almost ended in disaster; he spent one night of a weekend and needed to return to the center. I thought this was the end, but we tried again and he slowly developed the trust and confidence in me. A few months later he become my foster son. We shared almost two years together, during which I battled cancer and was forced to leave the Air Force and relocate to the Albany NY area. Our life together was mostly good; however, the demons from his earlier life created such barriers to bonding that in the end we decided that a two-parent family could better meet his needs, much to our mutual pain. Johnny's story is one of courage and hope. It is a story for today and for each new today to come. It defines the hope and vitality of the human spirit, and is a lesson for us all. I am proud and humbled that this man still calls me "Dad."
A Truly Moving Book 
2007-12-05 - The latest book from Johnny Cash Eaton is a very emotional collection of poetry and the author's personal memoirs. Most of the writing was done by Johnny himself, while there's also a plentitude of contributions by Johnny's friends and family. Rarely does a man open up his heart for all the world to see, as Johnny does. His writing is honest and frank, and his words are memorable. His life story is painful to read about, but it MUST be read, because it demonstrates how the human soul can survive and triumph, even after being exposed to the worst abuse and cruelty. The kind words and praise expressed by others in this book reveal that there are a lot of folks in this world who are very proud of Johnny. I guarantee that after reading this book cover to cover, you'll never complain about YOUR life again. Kudos to Johnny Cash Eaton for beating some incredible odds.
