The heart of this book is the remarkable Civil War diary of the author's great-grandfather, William Benjamin Gould, an escaped slave who served in the United States Navy from 1862 until the end of the war. Gould somehow came to possess impressive literary skills, and his diary vividly records not only his adventures in the Navy but also his reflections on race relations.
