It's on order at our local public library in Calgary. I am number one on the holds list. Can't wait to read it! I just finished The Underground Railroad, by Colson Whitehead, and I want to learn more about slavery. + How people got themselves out of it.

Perhaps the most impactful college class I took in my undergraduate years was an intensive about American slavery, and your work was a foundational text in that class. Congratulations on this newest achievement.
