In the closing days of 1799, the United States was still a young republic, its uncertain future contested by the two major political parties of the day: the well-moneyed Federalists, led by Alexander Hamilton, and the populist Republicans, led by Aaron Burr. The two finest lawyers in New York, Burr and Hamilton were bitter rivals both in and out of the courtroom, and as the next election approached — with Manhattan likely to be the swing district on which the presidency would hinge — their animosity reached a fever pitch. Until, that is, a beautiful young woman was found floating in Burr’s newly constructed Manhattan Well. The accused killer, Levi Weeks, was the brother of an influential architect with ties to both men, and the crime quickly became the most sensational murder in the history of the young nation. With the entire city crying for Levi’s head, the young man was in danger of being hastily condemned without a proper hearing. And so America's two greatest attorneys did the unthinkable — they teamed up.

[Unabridged Audiobook CD] [Read by Avery Brooks] It begins with a birth in an African village in 1750, and ends two centuries later at a funeral in Arkansas. And in that time span, an unforgettable cast of men, women, and children come to life, many of them based on the people from Alex Haley's own family tree. When Alex was a boy growing up in Tennessee, his grandmother used to tell him stories about their family, stories that went way back to a man she called ''the African'' who was taken aboard a slave ship bound for Colonial America. As an adult, Alex spent twelve years searching for documentation that might authenticate what his grandmother had told him. In an astonishing feat of genealogical detective work, he discovered the name of ''the African'' -- Kunta Kinte -- as well as the exact location of the village in West Africa from where he was abducted in 1767. Roots is based on the facts of his ancestry, and the six generations of people -- slaves and freemen, farmers and lawyers, an architect, a teacher -- and one acclaimed author -- who descended from Kunta Kinte.
