Fun book -- it's like "hearing" the two women talk about their lives. They have great personalities that come through as they share about their experiences living as African American women over the last 100 years.

Great book, I really enjoyed it. You fall in love with these two sisters and they help you to remember what life was like "back in the day". Wonderful book.

Excellent history of two sisters and their first 100 years together. Interesting - not a lesson on history, but a reliving that takes the reader into the Delany sisters home and family.

I was so impressed with this historical record of two independent women of virtue and opinion. It gives an incite into thoughts and heritage of Black women who lived through perhaps the most troubling times in modern America. THis book is well written and one in which the reader comes to know the characters.......and they were......like friends. I am using in for my bookclub's selection this year!
An easy read, funny and inspiring.
From back cover: "This book is destined to become a classic! The Delany Sisters...leave to us the best of legacies--two sets of dancing footprints for us to follow all our days ahead."--Clarissa Pinkola Estes, author of Women Who Run With the Wolves
