Publisher Description
Being just a little boy, I couldn't really follow most of what [Grandmother Palmer and her sisters] said.... But slowly, from hearing the stories each passing summer, I began to recognize frequently repeated names.... The farthest-back person they ever talked about was a man they called "the African".... Alex Haley (1976)
