Born into slavery on a Louisiana sugar plantation, Samuel James’ world of youthful innocence, strong family, and faith is shattered when he is forced into the brutal reality of field labor. Spanning six decades, his epic journey takes him from the battlefields of the Civil War to the promise of a new life in the North. As he grapples with loss, faith, and betrayal, Sam must ultimately confront the true meaning of freedom, not only in the world around him but within himself in this inspiring story.
