Fanatical Schemes: Proslavery Rhetoric and the Tragedy of Consensus
Though "Raising Freedom's Child" might not present any groundbreaking points about race relations in the US, her creative use of source material and her focus on children offers an interesting perspective on children during the late 1800s. I consider this book to be a useful addition to the growing field of children's history, and it also serves as an example of the strength of interdisciplinary research. Gender, age, class, and race all come together as Mitchell retells the story of the first generation of children living during Emancipation. All in all, Mitchell writes a great narrative, which makes the book entertaining (if you're into the subject matter, I suppose) as well as informative.
