I haven't read "Feast of all Saints" in over 20 years. I read the first three Anne Rice novels when they came out. I have re-read Interview but not Feast of all Saints or Cry to Heaven. Sill in my opinion those were the BEST three books the woman would ever write.

That's sad about the schoolbooks these days. At least your son is lucky to have you help him discover more.

When I was a kid my mom bought me a set of encyclopedias on Black History 20+ volumes. I still have them. Maybe I will find a kid to pass them onto some day.

Hey, we have some American black history in Canada too. The underground tunnel which led runaway slaves to safe haven in Canada. Alot of the blacks in Nova Scotia are the descendents of slaves that travelled through that tunnel.

Didn't Thomas Jefferson have an affair with a slave and they had a child together? The family had to do some DNA testing recently, because some of the mixed descendents of that affair wanted to be buried in the family's cemetary plot.
