Barracoon: The Story of the Last "Black Cargo" by Zora Neale Hurston

5.0

Remarkable book: the story of Cudjo Lewis, the last surviving African brought over on the last slave ship, as told to Zora Neale Hurston. What's most interesting is the longest passage in the book, in which Cudjo describes his life in Africa before his village was destroyed by the Dahomey tribe that kidnapped him.
