Description

This book contains testimony of many, if not all the inhumane ways slaves were treated. Subjects included; workload and hours, lack of food, proper clothing and housing. Also included are the cruel ways slaves were treated treated, and the tortures they were "punished" with. Many very religious leaders; men and women, along with prominent politicians owned and passionately mistreated "their" slaves. Newspaper clippings are also included. The names of the contributors, or names of people willing to vouch for those who witnessed the incidents are included. This is a painful book to read. It should be required reading.
