"Charming.... An uplifting story of tough breaks, hard work, and a generous heart."--People
In The Seventh Child, Freddie Mae Baxter--75 years old, compassionate, hauntingly wise--tells her story and the story of the twentieth century in her own charming, unforgettable voice.
Freddie Mae is as complex as she is irresistible. The seventh of eight children, she grew up in poverty at the height of Jim Crow. She picked cotton, worked in a factory, and raised the white sons and daughters of Manhattan's Upper East Side. She is a devout believer who disagrees with the Church and a fiscally responsible citizen with a weakness for Atlantic City. Heartwarming, vivid, illuminating, The Seventh Child celebrates the bounty of life's simple joys and introduces an American Soul to be cherished.

The Seventh Child
A biography of a fascinating person, William Sanders Scarborough, born enslaved in Georgia, witness as a youth to the Civil War and the defeat of the Confederacy (he saw Jefferson Davis being escorted under guard after the war), went on to become a prominent Classicist, preparing his own introductory textbook to Ancient Greek. His intellectual successes continued to bring him admiration and fame, political connections (mostly within the Republican party, which was, of course, at that time more allied to the interests of African-Americans), position within his church and as president of a University, etc. He witnessed the first World War, and its aftermath. An incredible life!
