Synopsis
My great-grandmama's mama told her and she told me this story about a long time ago . . . So begins this account of the author's great-great-grandmother Jane, and how she meets a slave new to the plantation, a slave who would prove to have magical powers . . . created by the wish for freedom. Alice McGill remembers this story, passed down in her family through the generations, from her childhood and how her greatgrandmother told it to her as if unveiling a great, wonderful secret. My siblings and I believed that certain Africans shared this gift of taking to the air--'way up and over everything.', My great-grandmama's mama told her and she told me this story about a long time ago . . .

    The book arrived quickly and in good condition. It was sealed in plastic and packaged well. The seller took a while to get back to me when I first messaged them, but did ultimately reply. I would buy from this seller again.

    Overall, my experience was positive. This book was listed as New condition in shrink wrap. The book was most certainly not new - there was a sticker residue on the inside and some pages were stained. The shrink wrap was not placed on it by the publishers. Someone wrapped it in saran wrap later. The book was generally in fine condition and the packaging was sufficient - mailer with cardboard supports. Not sure why listing offers best offer choice if best offer is 1 dollar less than full price.
