Opis

A southern white, Elizabeth Jane Whichards has her father buy an old slave at an auction. Easy Breeze and Elizabeth form an unique bond which shapes the ideal of Whichards Grove prior to the Civil War and throughout generations. From horrific assaults to stubborn triumphs, the legacy of the plantation endures. Elizabeth Jane and several generations of Whichards women, over come social shackles and aid in the deliverance of freedom to a people and carry on an idealology that began with a little white child and an old unwanted slave in 1859. An enigma to an entity, Easy Breeze changed and lifted humilty for both white and black people, tearing down barriers by instituting a moral code which challenged the Klu Klux Klan, and the interracial bigotry. The lessons of Easy Breeze and Elizabeth Jane built a legacy carried through decades and up to Florida and James Daniel Junior. History is filled with numerous stories, but few give such insight to the mind set of white americans who hailed the rise of social equality and the struggles they lived through. Cometh The Harvest is such a story.
