description: This book chronicles the journey through the history, lives, and events in the historic hamlet of Berkley, Maryland. It is a narrative of blacks and whites living side-by-side, resulting in a mutual respect and neighborliness that transcended the laws and mores of the time. It also chronicles the economic interdependence and social separation in the community. The story has been enriched with interviews of some of Berkley's current and former residents. Berkley's story mirrors that of the many rural communities that were prevalent in early United States history. The 192-page, case-bound book, published by Gateway Press, contains 105 illustrations.
