Review:

A wonderful book telling the horrible and horrifying true tale of a man made slave in his own words.  I listened to this book and you can truly imaging him speaking and telling his own tale.  This man had a hard life and he suffered through death on a scale unimaginable to most modern Americans.  Read it.
