Freedom Spring Kurt Maddox Vetters

Freedom Spring tells the story of a young African-American soldier in the American Civil War. For Jim Coffee, a fourteen-year-old slave in 1864 Alabama, life was about to turn upside down. Freedom Spring is a novel of Jim's journey from slavery to the Union Army and freedom. Meghan Markle's great-great-great-great grandfather, Joseph Betts, fought in the battles portrayed. Following the research of esteemed North Alabama historian and author Peggy Towns, Freedom Spring immerses you in the events that shaped a nation. The courage and perseverance of brave African-American soldiers wrote an unsung chapter in American history that can now be told.
