african-american and black,americas,biographies,ethnic and national,history,memoirs,state and local, This is a compelling account of a remarkable journey from slavery to freedom in the American South. Born a slave in 1843 in New Bern, N.C., William Henry Singleton grew up on a remote coastal plantation at Garbacon Creek. From a slave's viewpoint, his Recollections provides an intimate and moving portrait of the growing schism between North and South, of a fierce yearning to hold onto family while in bondage, and of the African American freedom struggle during slavery.The Civil War stands as a turning point in Singleton's narrative. In 1862 he escaped from a Confederate soldier and fled to freedom in Union-occupied New Bern. There he helped to recruit one of the first African American regiments in the Union army and subsequently served as a sergeant in the 35th United States Colored Troops. Until the day he died, at a reunion for Civil War veterans in 1938, Singleton insisted that his wartime service pledged the United States to fulfill its promise of freedom and equality for all citizens.
