I am familiar with the portrayals of slavery in America, but not with the slavery in Great Britain. Neither did I have a very good idea of the mechanics of the slave trade, with all of its horrendous effects. All is explained in detail in this book, and set inside of a love story. But, as in real life, the ending is not "happily ever after". I feel that Ms. Gregory's characters are realistic and well-researched. The book was fascinating, though not always enjoyable. It would make a good book club discussion.
