Great read for those interested in African-American History

I absolutely loved this book. I've had pleasure of hearing the author discuss this work. Although written from achival data, these narratives are compelling and "alive". I was drawn to the individuals, their stories, their challenges and triumphs. The slaves' experiences are presented psychologically, sociologically and antropologically. A must read!
