Synopsis
A riveting narrative history of America, from the 1607 landing in Jamestown to the brink of the Civil War, Africans in America tells the shared history of Africans and Europeans as seen through the lens of slavery. It is told from the point of view of the Africans who arrived in shackles and endured the terrible dichotomy of this new land founded on the ideal of liberty but dedicated to the perpetuation of slavery. Meticulously researched, this book weaves together the experiences of the colonists, slaves, free and fugitive blacks, and abolitionists to present an utterly original document, a startling and moving drama of the effects of slavery and racism on our conflicted national identity. The result transcends history as we were taught it and transforms the way we see our past.

- m***f (208)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseOrder was for two books. Only received two. Communication poor. Had to get eBay to intervene. Seller did give refund for the two books not received. Since I needed four this week, had to buy two on Amazon. Would not order again from this seller if I was buying for others in a group and had to have the books. The two books they sent were in like new condition. Delivery was quick, but if the order is not correct, then it does not matter.
