Listen to the voices as you read_the words are in the dialect of the unlettered South of the Northern American continent. The utterings fall upon the brain relentlessly, irrevocably. In the table of contents, the configeration is that three to four slaves recount their lives under slavery, followed by a section on a a subject, e.g., "Religion and Education". By all slave accounts the average pages to tell his/her story is ten; the "subject" which follows is twice as long, averaged. This paired slave account with the following subject is done nine times. It works well: You can open in any order you choose.
Some stories are informational and matter-of-fact; some are harrowing. Enhancement of these is appended by thirty-nine illustrations of the slaves themselves.
