I would be very interested in winning this book. I just finished “Slavery By Another Name,” another book about the consequences of slavery for years beyond the Civil War and the individuals and companies that were involved. I think this is a very important topic that must continue to be brought to the attention of current generations.

I would love this book, but I’m not an MP3 audio type of person. But I’ll be looking for his book!

I am a Cultural History Interpreter and this would be such a great resource for me! I am going to see the film “Traces of the Trade” tonight. What a fascinating, engrossing story. It helps to have this information when I discuss slavery and abolition with schoolchildren who I do programs for.
