The Topanginu Warrior is not a politically correct version of what transpired on the plantations of the South during the 19th Century - This story, saga if you will, is told with all of the warts intact and the lost hope of the African American culture told as it truly was. To us there is no other way to tell it. It was ugly, it was debasing and it was fraught with wrenching heartbreak and untold danger - however, out of that turmoil emerged a powerful force that helped shape the America we live in today. Topa was born in the small village of Topingau in Africa. His dream was to be a Topanginu Warrior as his grandfather and father were before him. Captured by slave traders, in concert with a warring enemy tribe, he is brought to America and sold as property. Growing from a boy to a young man, he learns of a great war between the whites to free the enslaved black people. His exciting escape begins a journey into a lawless frontier, filled with ruthless and dangerous men. It is an exciting adventure that will keep your eyes riveted to the page and leave you virtually breathless. Now, close your eyes - Take a deep breath, fill your nostrils with the sweet earthy smell of the Mississippi Delta on a hot, humid summer day. Listen to the croak of the bullfrog, and the singing of a thousand crickets. Watch the silent dark waters of the great Mississippi as it swirls past. Let your thoughts be mesmerized by the gentle swaying of the willows along its banks - dancing in the soft evening breeze. Hear the creaking of an ancient wagon filled with cotton as it makes its way to market. See the dust swirl as a gentle mare plods along, her hooves thumping softly upon the sun-baked earth. Visualize the great plantation houses that rise from the earth in all their splendor, their vast columns standing proudly - reaching upward to the heavens. Hear the voices of a thousand slaves as they sing of their misery and beliefs. Hear the cries of the dying and the dead as they give their lives for wh.
