Description du livre
Roughly 60 years after the abolition of slavery, anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston made an incredible connection: She located one of the last surviving captives of the last slave ship to bring Africans to the United States. Hurston, a known figure of the Harlem Renaissance who would later write the novel ''Their Eyes Were Watching God,'' conducted interviews with the survivor but struggled to publish them as a book.
