Sewing Stories: Harriet Powers' Journey from Slave to Artist by Barbara Herkert

4.0

This beautiful book tells the story of Harriet Powers and her amazing quilts. More than that, it gives the reader a glimpse into the life of an enslaved person in Georgia and how the end of the Civil War and the end of slavery did not lead to prosperity for former enslaved persons as so often told.
