Historical fiction at its best

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago

I just finished this second book in Roots of Faith series and it was as good as the first. Even though slavery is not a happy subject to read about, it is part of the history of our country. This book exposes how badly African Americans were treated even up north. These are probably the best books I've read about slavery. I do hope there is a third book coming in the series.
