Starting in our nation's earliest years, thousands of free African Americans were building hundreds of settlements in the Northwest Territory, a territory that banned slavery and gave equal voting rights to all men. This groundbreaking work of research reveals the lost history of the nation's first Great Migration. Though forgotten today, these pioneers were a matter of national importance at the time; their mere existence leading to fierce political movements and battles that tore families and communities apart long before the Civil War erupted.

Tells an important part of American history...that's left out of most history books. I had an opportunity to visit Lyles Station, Indiana and Darke County, Ohio--- two locales mentioned in the book. Fascinating stories of early African American farming communities. If you can't get to Indiana or Ohio, there is an exhibit about these communities at the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture in Wash. DC.
