Jumping the Fence: A Legacy of Race in 150 Years of Family Secrets (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781462113835)

In 19th century New Orleans, members of the wealthy interracial Esnard family risk everything as they seek to jump the fence between African American heritage and white identity. Racially charged political turbulence-pervading the city's famous French Quarter-only raises the stakes. Read the extraordinary true story of these early civil rights activists who stopped at nothing to protect each other and their assets in the struggle against slavery and segregation.
