About This Item

Athens: The University of Georgia Press Book. VG+. Soft cover. (1991), tall 12mo, xi, 148pp, index, bibliography. Wrps. VG+. From the note by Charles Joyner: "Melton McLaurin's flowing narrative and grace of language bring the story of Celia chillingly alive. But his narrative of a slave woman [on trial for murder in Missouri in 1855] who was both vulnerable and passionately fierce is more than just compulsive reading. He uses the story of one woman in one small place to probe the largest questions of southern history, women's history, legal history, and the history of slavery.".
