The Price of Liberty: African Americans and the Making of Liberia
"This is a brilliant and fascinating account that has filled in many gaps.... The narrative has a deep human quality, depicting the real predicament that the option of colonization posed for black people. This book will definitely illuminate the Liberia story and enliven an important period of American history.... There is a lot that Liberians can learn from this work that should provide a context for reconciliation and reconstruction." - Amos Sawyer, Interim President of Liberia (1990-1994) and author of The Emergence of Autocracy in Liberia"
