Reviews

[Linda · Rating 3 out of 5]

This story took place in a nearby town which is why I read this. Doubt most would be interested in the story. Typical black/white drama from the 1950’s in the South.

[Jane · Rating 5 out of 5]

Riveting…compelling…and from everything I’ve read about the racial history in Florida- accurate. Quite a page turner and an eye opener to the Southern way in 1952.
