The unanimous declaration of the thirteen United States of America states "We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal . . . " The founders neglected to say this didn't apply to Men with black skin.
This book, based on the 1843 narrative, The Life of Moses Grandy, explores slavery, politics, culture, and religion in the newly created United States of America. The title is taken from a Frederick Douglass quote "Sometimes I forget the color of my skin and remember that I am a man."
In the late 1700's, the child Moses, playmate of the master's son, sees his mother lashed to a peach tree and whipped. As a young man, he suffers under a series of cruel masters, which forges his character and his faith in God.In adulthood, his wife and children are sold away and he is twice tricked outof money he has earned to buy his freedom. His travails, which uncannily parallel those of the Biblical Moses,are a shining example of what can be accomplished through faith and perseverance.

This book was offered as s freebie. However, it was phenomenal. Brought tears to my eyes because I saw what our ancestors have experienced to bring us where we are today. I salute them and thank them.
Very engaging story. I just could not put this book down. I felt a need to follow Moses in his journey and hope for a happy ending.
Great read. Tale of perseverence hope betrayal determination. Moses is a slave by color only because in his mind and soul he's free. Please read.
I loved this story. I would have liked to see more character interaction between Moses and Betsy, as well as Moses relationship with his children, but still lived the story.
enjoyed the story.
Very well written. This book flowed and kept me interested in all the characters. I really enjoyed it.
