Set to the backdrop of the Civil War, the story revolves around Iola Leroy, daughter of a wealthy slaveholder who emancipated and married a young slave called Marie after she nursed him through an illness. The children's African ancestry was hidden from them until the death of their father, after which point Marie and her children were once again legally considered slaves. One of the first books to be written by an African American women, “Iola Leroy” is a must read for those with an interest in American history.
