Hardcover. First edition. Introduction by Bishop Robert T. Jones. Octavo. 152pp. Blue cloth gilt. Rubbing and some scuffs mostly on the front board, else very good. Novel about the struggle of freed black people in the face of prejudice and mob violence by Wood, who was long thought to be African-American until revealed to be white in Carla Kaplan's book, *Miss Anne in Harlem*. Kaplan calls out Wood but cast her deception in a sympathetic light given Wood's genuine concern for and dedication to her students at the historically black Morristown College in East Tennessee where she taught for more than 45 years. An important title by an influence imprint and exceptionally uncommon.
