Black History is American History, and the Civil War was Black and White

Spirit Ran Free is a fantastic romantic historic novel, written by author, Forest Hairston, to encourage our spirit to look back and then look ahead with positive eyes to see ahead.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) June 5, 2004 -- After an enormous experience, which has taken nearly seven years to completely write, ForGen Books is now set to announce that the novel Spirit Ran Free by author, Forest Hairston, is slated for a hardcover release on June 5. Forest's book is an intense saga where a reader will want to pause and listen to the slaves and the legendary voices that protested slavery. And then recall what adulation so many felt at the awakening dawn of America -- at the time when Abraham Lincoln's emancipation was touched upon.

Spirit Ran Free will obviously be eagerly received by a wide circle of serious readers, who enjoy a superbly written romantic novel that captivates a period of slavery and intense Civil War history. The Black and White voices inside this book wrote Black history, and they were writing our American history as well. And shall we never forget the Black slave, the naked soul of Color, and the ardent White abolitionists that voiced their enormous protest against slavery. It all happens in a time called yesterday. Then now, today we will not ignore that much of this American saga for absolute equality and racial harmony do yet remain.

The author, Forest Hairston was born in Glen White, West Virginia, raised in Detroit, Michigan, and now resides in Los Angeles, California. He has written songs for Motown stars, such as Smokey Robinson and Marvin Gaye. Spirit Ran Free takes him another step forward as a fabulous novelist -- with a voice.
