In the Land of Cotton

By Martha A. Taylor

Martha A. Taylor had a front-row seat to the American civil rights movement of the mid-twentieth century. In the Land of Cotton blends history, personal accounts, and intimate recollection to deliver a familiar story in an enlightening way. Slavery did not end with the removal of shackles; it has long remained a shadow to our society. What Taylor learned in her childhood home in Memphis would change who she was forever. In the Land of Cotton shares those experiences as you explore the Deep South. The story begins in 1956.
