Prologue : New Bern, North Carolina, May 1863 -- At river's edge -- The secret feelings of their hearts -- A second John Brown -- Spies all their lives -- They will fight to the death -- My harte over run with joy -- The death of a hero -- The meeting with Lincoln -- Their path to freedom -- God's free man -- Soldiers of the cross -- In this land we will remain -- Loud calls for Galloway.
"Abraham H. Galloway (1837-70) was a fiery young slave rebel, radical abolitionist, and Union spy who rose out of bondage to become one of the most significant and stirring black leaders in the South during the Civil War. Throughout his brief, mercurial life, Galloway fought against slavery and injustice. This riveting portrait illuminates Galloway's life and deepens our insight into the Civil War and Reconstruction as experienced by African Americans in the South"--Provided by publisher.
