The Amazing Age of John Roy Lynch by Chris Barton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is an important book. How often do we read about former slaves who went from that status to Congress in ten years? I can't remember any. This book explains a time in America's history that we like to forget/ignore/gloss over well. Barton clearly did a lot of research about his subject.
