A light shone unto a chapter of history which some people would rather have left hidden in the dark. An absolute triumph..

Page after page reveals information I was never taught in school--true stories of tragedy, triumph, struggle. You can't help but have an awe and deep respect for what these people went through, for their strength and character and unswerving dedication to God. Faith and valor are two words that they embody. I am so proud of them. I bought a copy for my brother and my father. This book should be in every American's (and African's) home library. Also, I must commend the author for a fair presentation of the basics of Islam. Her mistakes in this area were very few.

An excellent book about an unknown story

I've read many books on slavery but for the first time, I have felt a close connection with the Africans who were enslaved in the New World. This book presents their personal stories, their educational and familial background, their aspirations and struggles, in a detailed and lively manner. I greatly recommend this book, full of previously unknown information to anyone who wants to read the true, positive and inspiring story of the Africans who brought so much to America.
