Staff Reviews


Never have I read a novel about the Civil War in the South that was this entrancing. Part love story, part horror story (and not the Steven King kind), but, most of all, it's America in all it's guises, good, bad, and indifferent. A superb story with characters I'll never forget, Freeman is one of those speical books that goes on the small bookcase of titles I'll never give away and will always come back to.

“As the Civil War ends, many broken lives await their own personal reconstruction. Pitts weaves together the stories of former slaves seeking family members from whom they were long separated, abolitionists opening a school to educate Southern blacks for a new life, and defeated, still angry Confederate soldiers. The characters are multi-dimensional and the historical detail is astonishingly accurate. Freeman is an engrossing, moving read and an original portrayal of a pivotal time in our nation's history.”
