This was one heck of a read when I was in the Graduate program for History at San Jose State. Not only does it gives the reader a view of slavery from a slaves point of view but it does not take a paternalistic view. Yes they were slaves, and considered chattel but even in such a brutal and horrible system, Genovese shows that beneath the labels slaves were people. With dreams, love and even power. An amazing book.
Enough twists and turns to merit the last in the series. Enjoyed this series much- it was like a cross between Harry Potter and Twilight. Looking forward to the Prequel.
