Amazing story of a man, Cudjoe Lewis, that was captured, enslaved, brought to the U.S. on the last slave ship, survived slavery and lived a free man in the brutal Jim Crow south. The story is uneven, due to the Mr. Lewis's age, but it was a fascinating glimpse into this extraordinary man's life. I listened to the audiobook and appreciated the way that the narrator, Robin Miles, gave life to Mr. Lewis's words.
