About This Item
Scholastic Pess, 2003. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/As New. Sepia & duotone era photos illustrate throughout. CONTITION: UNREAD, but not quite perfect, 2003 Scholastic hardcover (beige boards with title in gold foil just as on the dust jacket), first edition, first printing. Illustrated with sepia tone era photos and artifacts throughout. The Proclamation is reprinted on the back cover. PROBLEM: 2 corners are lightly bumped. CONTENT: The McKissacks introduce young readers to the pivotal events leading up to and including the long awaited and glorious Days of Jubilee. For two and a half centuries African-American slaves sang about, prayed for, and waited on their long anticipated freedom -- a day of Jubilee. But freedom didn't come for slaves at the same time. DAYS OF JUBILEE chronicles the various stages of U.S. emancipation beginning with those slaves who were freed for their service during the Revolutionary War, to those who were freed by the 13th Amendment to the Constitution. Using slave narratives, letters, diaries, military orders, and other documents, the McKissacks invite young readers to celebrate coming freedom and the Days of Jubilee.
