Slaves in the family

Ball, Edward

Slaves in the family / Edward Ball - New York : Ballantine Books , 1999 - 505 p. ; 21 cm.

Includes bibliographical references and index

It is a work about slaves in the family. But it is also a large omnium gatherum of enchanting fireside anecdotes, secrets teased out of reluctant fragments from the remote past, the real lives of blacks and whites whose stories had been lost in the disintegrating churn of time until Edward Ball's patient reconstructions.
