very good dust-jacket, cover price $25.00, attractive copy, appears unused, black and light brown hardcover. DAVIS, THULANI. My Confederate kinfolk: a twenty-first century freedwoman confronts her roots. New York: Basic Civitas Books, 2006, 1st printing number line ending in 1, vii, 324pp., . "Starting from a photograph and writings left by her grandmother, beloved African-American novelist Thulani Davis goes looking for the "white folk" in her family, a Scots-Irish clan of cotton planters unknown to her - and uncovers a history for richer and stranger than she had ever imagined. Along the way she finds tarten plaid, unlikely lovers, a lynching close to home, and Confederate soldiers." "When Davis's grandmother died in 1971, she was writing a novel about her parents. Mississippi cotton farmers who met when in their twenties sometime after the Civil War, Chloe Curry, a former slave from Alabama, married with several children, and Will Campbell, a white planter from Missouri who had never married.", "In this compelling intersection of genealogy, memoir, and history. Davis picks up where her grandmother left off. Inspired by an 1890s photograph of a black teenager dressed in Campbell family tartan, Davis finds herself on a journey to places from Missouri to Mississippi to Alabama, and even back to her home town in Virginia.". 9780465015559 ISBN 0465015557.

First Edition
Hardcover first edition - First printing. A memoir of her first 12 years when her father told her there was a war against Black people and she had to become a soldier. He was a "proud Jamaican immigrant who encouraged his daughter to read, and took her to museums and to Carnegie Hall, but also called her 'damn black devil child' and beat her for the slightest misstep. He moved his family from a Harlem housing project to their own home in Brooklyn, enrolled June at a white boarding school, and fought savagely with his wife, who argued, 'The child is a Black girl . you gwine to make her afraid to be sheself!' Jordan reproduces the rhythms of West Indian speech as vividly as she captures African American culture of the 1930s and '40s in a poignant autobiography that, for all its racial particularity, tells an all-American story of the charged emotional legacy bequeathed by parents striving to give their children a better life." (Wendy Smith) 261 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket.

First Edition
First edition - Advance Reading Copy (trade paperback format. ) A collection of essays, some previously unpublished, in which "the notoriously contrarian critic of race-based cultural politics examines the problem of ethnic authenticity in contemporary America. Writing in a characteristically peeved style, Crouch is perhaps most cogent in an essay entitled 'Most Vote for Literary Segregation, Others Don't,' in which he asserts that contemporary American writers, wary of being labeled politically incorrect, rarely write about life beyond the boundaries of their own race and class." (Publisher's Weekly)" 226 pp. Near fine in glossy illustrated wrappers. An uncommon advance issue.
