This book tells the incredible story of twelve siblings, eleven of whom changed their names and locations to begin a new life. After slavery ended, many African Americans moved to cities in the North but Archie Rison's ancestors moved from Alabama to Texas. Over forty Colston, Gregory, Perry, and Ferguson fathers, mothers, and children settled in the African American community of Sand Hill at the end of the 19^th century. What drove them to make such monumental changes? (139pp. color illus. index. Masthof Press, 2026.)
