Description

A poignant and enlightening novel-rich in history, warm characterization and strong in sense of family. Centered around New York City at the dawn of the Great Depression, the story depicts the warm, close relationship between a young boy abandoned by his mother after his father's tragic murder, and the gentle, loving grandfather who raised him. Through the grandfather's storytelling, the boy learns of his own rich and colorful history-his great-grandfather's involvement in the Underground Railroad, his great-grandmother's journey from Africa to America, and the multitude of changes that took place before and during the Civil War. Of Days Gone By is delightful and informative reading. One will walk away from the novel with the knowledge that African-Americans have a valuable legacy well worth passing on to their own children.
