Nate Shaw's father was born under slavery. This triumphant autobiography, assembled from the eighty-four year old Shaw's oral reminiscences, is the plain-spoken story of an over-average man who witnessed wrenching changes in the lives of Southern black people – and whose unassuming courage helped bring those changes about. National Book Award winner.
