Book Reviews of Abrahams Well: A Novel

Book Review: A pageturner!!!
Summary: 4 Stars

This was a beautiful story based on true events. Armentia is a black Cherokee forced by the government to leave her home and walk the 1000 mile trail of tears. Armentia and others go through so much it is hard to imagine how she or any of the others survived. I gave the story 4 stars because some parts drag a bit but otherwise it was a very enjoyable read.

Summary of Abrahams Well: A Novel

I have discovered there's Indian in my family heritage.... The time is 1838. Armentia pointed to a well on the land their Cherokee master owns. "It seems hard to believe now, son, but someday we'll have our own land. Land with a well just like this one.." Inspired by true events, authentic slave narratives, and other historical accounts, Abraham's Well is the profoundly moving story of the Black Cherokee--African Americans, both slave and free--who, along with native people, walked the Trail of Tears. It is the story of their forced removal from the Southeast to Indian Territory---modern day Oklahoma--and of the courage and faith of one woman as she struggles to overcome her desperate circumstances. And it is the story of an author who, in researching and writing, found her own way home.
