Paperback. Condizione: Good. Many Americans believe that the coming of the blue soldiers of the North, emissaries of emancipation, was a joyful event for African Americans. Nothing could be further from the truth.How do we know this? Because we have their recorded accounts. Ending slavery, contrary to self-congratulatory American myth, was not a righteous crusade. It was a by-product of a brutal war of conquest and invasion-a total war against civilians in which black Southerners suffered as much if not more than whites. The devastation of the people's resources in large areas of the South left African Americans as well as Southern whites suffering and sometimes starving. For many, it was an experience of fear, disruption of life, and cruel uncertainty about their future, to which the liberators had given no thought.The material gathered by Paul C. Graham makes this clear. Of late, Americans have had a taste for history by theory: The War Between the States was "about" slavery. A better understanding comes from seeing what the people who were there have to say about it. Such an approach to history as human experience can be both informative and enlighteningThis book is the first in a series of first-hand accounts of the invasion of the South.Note: This title is enrolled in Kindle MatchBook.

She has to fight with the pain of losing her pregnancy because of her man's drama.

Unfortunately for Nikki, the love for Junior isn't something that she can escape, and she finds herself having to make a decision with severe consequences!
