More DescriptionA riveting fictional novel based on real life events. Scott Harrington is emancipated by law at the age of 17. However, the abolishment of slavery does not end the love/hate relationship between Scott and the Seamore family. Scott discovers that neither the Emancipation Proclamation nor the 13th Amendment are enough to eradicate the gruesome stain of a diabolical system of human chattels. His life is the clash between bondage and freedom; love and hate; peace and war; Christianity and the taboo practices of witch craft, roots, and voo doo. When he passes away at the age of 93, he still has a relationship with the Seamores -- the family who once owned him.
