Synopsis
This is an anthology bringing together the letters of freed slaves at a turbulent time in America's history. In the midst of the Civil War, millions of slaves were finally emancipated; the letters, personal testimonies, transcripts and records collected here convey the heroic struggle of black men and women to overthrow the brutal slave system, to aid the Union cause and to give meaning to their newly won freedom in a war-torn nation.
