There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I learned quite a few things from his book, including some I ashamedly realized I should have already known. That is another problem, since the author tends to stray into general African history quite often rather than sticking to the words of the people who visited Afica. This is somewhat unavoidable since the reader needs context, but I got the feeling the author either has or wants to write a general history book of Africa.
I reccommend this book to anyone who is interested in Afican history or on leading historical American figures of African ancestory.
Instead, "Middle Passages" weaves together accounts of African Americans who crossed the Atlantic from America back to Africa. In so doing, Campbell writes a compelling narrative of the pull back home that will provide insight to readers of all races.
