Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
This fascinating autobiography describes one woman's life as a slave and subsequently her four years in Lincoln's White House during the Civil War. Through the eyes of this black woman, a seamstress and dressmaker who was only a few years removed from being a `slave for life', we see historical figures and events including the Lincolns in their private chambers and the return to Richmond after the fall of the Confederate capital.
