Reviews

[Daniel Kleven · Rating 4 out of 5]

Written as an "answer" to Thomas Dixon's thoroughy racist The Leopard's Spots, this book was interesting, but the plot was sometimes hard to follow, a little didactic at times, but for what it was trying to accomplish, it's great. One of a few books in the genre "Black Baptist novels."

This was good! A lot of characters to keep track of, really. And a little didactic, but certainly not too much so - stayed entertaining as well.
