Produktbeschreibung

Whoever knew West Virginia would be the promised land for hundreds of thousands African-Americans escaping the hardships of the South after the Emancipation Proclamation. Freedom comes in many forms. West Virginia became a refuge for individuals looking for a better life, but It sometimes came with a deadly price. This book captures the spirit of one family's devotion for one another and the drive to never give up on the American Dream at a time in the United States when dreams of Black business owners were plentiful, but the reality of Black business ownership was just a dream.
