Review: A master narrative of slavery, memory, material objects and silences of the archives. - A well written book that uses textiles to recover the history of slavery in the south through the stitches of family memory on a handmade cotton sack passed from generations of female slaves that was auctioned off and ended up in a museum in Charleston, where the original owner Rose was enslaved. It is a well woven tale in the hands of a master historian. Great text for classroom.
Review: Worth the effort - While sometimes tedious, and often conspicuously repetitive, this book is worth sticking with to the end. You cannot fail to come away from it with a deeply sentimental appreciation for the experience of enslaved people in relation to "things." Think of how many things have passed into your possession based largely on their meaning more than their utility: furniture, jewelry, clothing, tools, art, and of course, photographs. This book will give you an appreciation for things so outwardly mundane and yet so packed with personal value. And except for those beset with an inability to do so, you will gain yet a stronger, if deeply disturbing, comprehension of America's Original Sin.
