Great Read

One of my all time favorite books. I could NOT put this book down. The writing is not the best but the story line is so intriguing and just makes you stop doing everything else to finish this book. I have recommended it to ALL my girlfriends !!!!

In the tradition of _Mandingo_

Published in 1976, this novel is set in the Old South on a plantation. The plantation owner forces his slaves to fight in a pit. Rafe wins repeatedly and is promised freedom, but... Also involves Rafe's lusty relationship with the white plantation mistress.

characters are real

Hope this is the book which I read sometime in the '70's; a fat 11-year old, father wirh a heart condition, mother working. I especially liked the father's friend--I think he was part Choctaw or Cherokee. The most exciting part of the book is the flood scene and the snake. A very good book.
