"'This book is of real importance. Frohne has drawn together all of the information about the African American burial ground in one place and analyzed it within the context of the history of enslaved Africans in New York"--Gretchen Sullivan Sorin, director and Distinguished Professor, Cooperstown Graduate Program, SUNY Oneonta; 'A timely addition to the scant literature about a well-known but understudied aspect of African American history in early New York City"--Graham Hodges, professor of history and Africana and Latin American studies, Colgate University"--From publisher's website.
