WOW. This is one extremely interesting book. Bliss Broyard decides to write a book about her father's life when she finds out on his death bed that he is black. She describes a looooong history of her families roots. The best part of the book is when she is describing her family. She spends a lot of time detailing the history of New Orleans which started out very interesting to me but then just becomes to detailed. In the end i did really love this book. It is definitely a must read! One that you must form your own opinions on.
