This is one good book and u can trust me I am not a good reader. bought it after my friend forced me to buy it .in the beginning was reluctant but now read it 3 times already
Its about this guy kunta kinte an african who is taken away fr5m his home land to US to work as a slave there
its a story about life before and after the civil war which plagued america
its quite gory at cirtain potions of the book but those of u who appretiated AMISTAD a speilsbreg movie will love this book
the most amazing part is how this man alex haley traces his family to 1700 and reveals the dirty but ture picture of the plight of the negroes in america before the civil war!!!!
