Book Details


First Sentence

"Stripped of family and friends, every possible belonging, even language, name, and religion, the kidnapped Africans did manage to smuggle a few revered comrades aboard the slave ships that transported them to America: Brer Rabbit and Brer Anancy, whom Guyanese author A. J. Seymour called "the unregistered passenger[s] of the Middle Passage.""
