Stop by the University of Iowa Press table on October 12 to pick up Freeman, by Leonard Pitts, Jr., from Agate Publishing! Freeman is written by a Pulitzer Prize–winning columnist and earned a Publishers Weekly starred review. It tells the post–Civil War love story of a runaway slave who once worked for the Union Army.
Praise for Freeman
"[A] uniquely American epic . . . Freeman is an important addition to the literature of slavery and the Civil War, by a knowledgable, compassionate, and relentlessly truthful writer determined to explore both enslavement in all its malignancy and also what it truly means to be free."--Howard Frank Mosher, Washington Post
