This book has the feel of a Great American Novel. The same sort of feel as The Grapes of Wrath, but dealing with slavery and oppression during the Civil War, rather than the economic hardships during the Great Depression.
With themes of race, religion, and relationships, Trouble the Water is a fictional story inspired by the heroic and hard life of Robert Smalls.
