Produktbeschreibung

The history of people must be told to their children. Each child who is born into a family has an oral and written history, which we should present to our children and not hide it under a bushel. This book is a sequel to Cultural Gumbo, Our Roots, Our Stories and A Diary of Lettie's Daughter. I have used my family members to tell the stories because I can trace their footsteps through oral and documented tradition and history.
