Read for personal research. I found this work of immense interest. This work was one of my resource sources while ghost authoring the historical fiction novel "I, Slave: 1746-1963" for E.MH Ratterman. I found this book's contents helpful and inspiring - number rating relates to the book's contribution to my needs. Overall, this work is also a good resource for the researcher and enthusiast.
