Book Description Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good+ ( see Description ). Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good+ (see description). Photo Cover (illustrator). First Edition. -----------( 1st printing of the First Edition ) ---hardcover, a Very Good/Very Good+ example with a bit of concave inward bowing to the spine of the book, a bit of very light edge rubbing, a bit of, browning to the paper as usually seen (in fact I haven't seen a copy without paper browning in 7 or 8 years), in a visually Near Fine dustjacket with light rubbing to the edges but there is a small stain at the lower spine tip on the verso of the jacket so overall a VG+ dustjacket, --- looks new especially with the jacket in a hi-quality mylar protector ----- in the US, Australia and New Zealand this was released with a different title, news reports indicate that Hill's book was to be burned by a Dutch Surinamese group ( Federation for Honour and Reparation of Slavery in Surinam ) who object to the use of the term Negroes, ----"Kidnapped as a child from Africa, Aminata Diallo is enslaved in South Carolina but escapes during the chaos of the Revolutionary War. In Manhattan, she becomes a scribe for the British, recording the names of blacks who have served the King and earned freedom in Nova Scotia. But the hardship and prejudice there prompt her to follow her heart back to Africa, then on to London, where she bears witness to the injustices of slavery and its toll on her life and a whole people. It is a story that no listener, and no reader, will ever forget. The Book of Negroes introduces one of the strongest female characters in recent fiction, a woman who cuts a swath through a world hostile to her colour and her sex." ----Readers will travel with Aminata Diallo from a West African village to an indigo plantation in South Carolina, through the tough streets of New York City and the harsh climate of Nova Scotia to the coast of Sierra Leone, and finally to an abolitionist's home in London., any image directly beside this listing is the actual book and not a generic photo ///NOT SIGNED ---GUARANTEED to be AVAILABLE /// ---sizes are approximate ---(generally within 1/8 inch)--- Size: 6.25w x 9.25h Inches.
