This is an excellent book. I was very surprised to hear that Strom Thurmond had a half black daughter with his 15 year old maid and he then was 22 years old. I was glas Essie May went public.The south is full of hypocrites like Strom Thurmond who will have a child with a 15 year old maid but do not want it known publicly. Now she is a member of his family openly and they acknowledge her. She is an excellent writer and this is an excellent story.
