I was between books and TW said Citizens Creek is really good so I gave it a try. It was really good.
The story of Cow Tom, born into slavery and sold to a Creek Indian chief. How he bought his freedom and the freedom of his family, became Chief Cow Tom and then the story shifts to those of his children/grandchildren after his death.
Chief Cow Tom was a real person and novels around real people can be problematic. Luckily, in this case it worked well. I’m really glad I read it.
