William S. McFeely (Author)

In this moving and original work, William S. McFeely, one of this country’s most distinguished historians, retells the history–and enters into the current-day lives–of the people who inhabit Sapelo’s Island off the coast of Georgia, descendants of slaves who once worked its huge cotton plantations. It is at once a richly detailed work of historical reconstruction, a sensitive portrait of the lives of black Americans in this particular place and in our own time, and a moving meditation on race by a writer who has made its painful dilemmas his life’s work as a historian.
