Fifteen years after its hardcover debut, the FSG Classics reissue of the celebrated work of narrative nonfiction that won the National Book Award and changed the American conversation about race, with a new preface by the author
The Ball family hails from South Carolina--Charleston and thereabouts. Their plantations were among the oldest and longest-standing plantations in the South. Between 1698 and 1865, close to four thousand black people were born into slavery under the Balls or were bought by them. In Slaves in the Family, Edward Ball recounts his efforts to track down and meet the descendants of his family's slaves. Part historical narrative, part oral history, part personal story of investigation and catharsis, Slaves in the Family is, in the words of Pat Conroy, a work of breathtaking generosity and courage, a magnificent study of the complexity and strangeness and beauty of the word 'family.'Binding Type: Paperback

Totally awesome. Get it now
Got this for me and my 5 year old fur Halloween and loved it!! We sprayed it in our hair, on our skin. It was so much fun. It reminded me of the old 80’s glitter hair spray but so so so much more awesome! Get it. Sparkle & shine all over all day and all night *dreamy*

Waste of money
Color: Orange
So much for indestructible, it wasn’t in my home five minutes before the leg came off. No exaggeration! Dixy had the toy in her mouth and I reached up to wiggle it and the leg came off in my hand and no Dixy wasn’t pulling away. I only purchased this toy because it claimed to be indestructible. After shipping and handling it cost me $30. I justified the cost because I thought it would be worth it for Dixy to have a toy that would last. Isn’t that the impression you get by the discrimination “indestructible” To add insult to injury this company sent a second one for another $30 and it really ticks me off that the product discrimination on even the return label still describes it as an indestructible plush dog toy. Please don’t waste your money this not as advertised. There’s nothing about this product to justify the outrageous expense for a toy that didn’t last five minutes.

Scam
Color: Brown+Blue, Color: Brown+Blue
Zero stars! What a disgrace. I waited weeks due to the delivery date changing after I placed the order. Then the shipping went up and cost more than the toy. It lasted 5 mins after opening, and it's head fell off. It was not even sewn on. So much for indestructible!!! Then when I returned, they sent a auto comment asking if I would keep it and take a 50% refund. No freaking way!! I'm so irritated right now.

This is not even chew resistant!!
Color: Brown
If there was an option for ZERO stars that would be this. Within 5 minutes my little 11 pound Havanese had all the ears off, then out came the stuffing. He had the little dog, and a green duck. I had to take the duck away to sew it….then he still had studding everywhere…and that was the little dog. Throwing stuffing and pieces away….I should have put these right back in the bags they came in. In no way ate these even chew “resistant “!!!! Probably just look good onna shelf.👎👎
