Slaves in the Family, by Edward Bell (TPB, 1999, $2.50) SOLD
I've read this book, the whole book, and was blown away. So much so that even after all my book purges it's still part of my library.
"The heart of this remarkable book consists of his sleuthing- tracking down and interviewing the descendants of former Ball slaves across the country... Part oral history, this unique family saga is a catharsis and a searching inventory of racially divided American society."- Publishers Weekly
Winner of the National Book Award.
