Deeply interesting if very much mass-market oral history of two very interesting women, who lived through a whole lot. This feels like a very sparse review, but I'm tired and can't think of a better; anyway, if the oral history memoirs of two black sisters who were born around 1890, became educated...
This book was originally read for a class book project for my Spring semester of this past year. I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but as soon as I reached the 5th chapter I fell in love with it! It's certainly an amazing book! True story of two sisters growing up at the end of the 19th century...
This was a wonderful book about two very amazing women and their lives...I don't usually read memoir's or biography's but this book was recommended by a friend. Once I started I could not stop and finished it in a day.
You don't live to be a hundred without having an interesting life. These two women are cool in ways one could only aspire to.
