Heart wrenching story of an actual series of events that took place in American history. The courage and determination of Cinque and his fellow Africans are what heroes are made of. I expected this book to be a bit depressing but was impressed with how inspirational it was. Everyone should read this.

One who has lived through these experiences and witnessed them first hand.… (más)
