Marsha Dean Phelts draws together personal interviews, photos, newspaper articles, memoirs, maps, and official documents to reconstruct the character and traditions of Amelia Island's 200-acre African American community. Phelts invokes colorful firsthand accounts and 'old-timer' stories, and paints what is ultimately a personal and intimate portrait of a community rich in heritage and culture.
