Book excerpt: "The 1800s for Black Americans was a time of forced servitude, anguish, heartbreak, and strength of faith. John, a wealthy Richmond, Virginia slave owner's son, and Hannah, the Negro daughter of a protective and loving mother, grew up as playmates, sharing their lives and dreams. Soon a sweet and tumultuous love affair began that grew so strong John would risk everything before relinquishing it. With his reputation in jeopardy, Hannah in his heart, and a father and country firmly against him, John must overcome innumerable obstacles, some involving incredible violence and cruelty. Along the way he discovers shocking family secrets, buried for years. This historic romance raises the question--can the love between a beautiful, young slave woman and a wealthy Confederate slave master's son endure the prevailing ideology of their time?"--Cover.
Download or read book Marie Or Slavery in the United States written by Gustave de Beaumont and published by . This book was released on 1958 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "First published in Paris in 1835, this important document on the status of the Negro in antebellum America now appears in English translation for the first time. Gustave de Beaumont accompanied Tocqueville on his travels in this country to study the American penal system for the government of Louis Philippe. The results were, for Tocqueville, the masterpiece Democracy in America, for Beaumont, Marie. As a novel, this story of the tragic love of a French traveler in the United States for a "woman of color" belongs to the romantic tradition of Chateaubriand and Mme de Stael. As a study of the color question in America, it complements Tocqueville's observations on American democracy and deals prophetically with the effects of slavery on a nation even after slavery is abolished: for Beaumont, who writes with a sharp pen, was less concerned with slavery as such than with the place of the free Negro in a color-conscious society. Though dated in its form, his work is intensively relevant to the contemporary scene..." -- Book Jacket.

Download or read book Wench written by Dolen Perkins-Valdez and published by Amistad. This book was released on 2010-01-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ambitious and startling debut novel that follows the lives of four women at a resort popular among slaveholders who bring their enslaved mistresses wench \'wench\ n. from Middle English "wenchel," 1 a: a girl, maid, young woman; a female child. Tawawa House in many respects is like any other American resort before the Civil War. Situated in Ohio, this idyllic retreat is particularly nice in the summer when the Southern humidity is too much to bear. The main building, with its luxurious finishes, is loftier than the white cottages that flank it, but then again, the smaller structures are better positioned to catch any breeze that may come off the pond. And they provide more privacy, which best suits the needs of the Southern white men who vacation there every summer with their black, enslaved mistresses. It's their open secret. Lizzie, Reenie, and Sweet are regulars at Tawawa House. They have become friends over the years as they reunite and share developments in their own lives and on their respective plantations. They don't bother too much with questions of freedom, though the resort is situated in free territory–but when truth-telling Mawu comes to the resort and starts talking of running away, things change. To run is to leave behind everything these women value most–friends and families still down South–and for some it also means escaping from the emotional and psychological bonds that bind them to their masters. When a fire on the resort sets off a string of tragedies, the women of Tawawa House soon learn that triumph and dehumanization are inseparable and that love exists even in the most inhuman, brutal of circumstances–all while they are bearing witness to the end of an era. An engaging, page-turning, and wholly original novel, Wench explores, with an unflinching eye, the moral complexities of slavery.
