This is a story I've never heard before. It's not a small story. It's the story of the migration of an enormous throng of people from the Deep South to the North during the twentieth century in the United States.

How is it that I have heard nothing of this before now? Not in school or college or in my leisure reading, reading which is often historical.

I loved this book. Well researched. Detailed. Personal.
