Description

Centering Black voices and slave narratives, celebrated historian and children's book author, William Loren Katz offers a thoroughly researched look at the lives of enslaved people in the United States in Breaking the Chains.

From their African abductions through their brave resistance to and escape from the ships and harsh plantation life to their roles in the Civil War, those given voice here show that the slaves themselves were a driving force behind their emancipation.

This compelling look at history is an educational eye-opener for history buffs of all ages, and offers clarity on one of the most turbulent periods of US history.

This new paperback edition features a new introduction by historian Robin D.

G. Kelley.
