Hardcover
(Thorndike Press July 2, 2003)
, 1 edition
An ALA Award-winning Author
As part of the staff of George and Martha Washington, Oney is referred to as a servant, not a slave, and when she becomes Martha's personal servant her status in the household is second to none. But, slowly, Oney realizes that -- regardless of what they call it -- it's still slavery, and she must make a choice. Told with immense power and compassion, this is the extraordinary true story of one young woman's struggle to take what is rightfully hers.
