| Publisher Description: McIntosh Summer is set in 1933, location Georgia. This young adult historical fiction based on Chief William McIntosh is a glimpse into the Muscogee (Creek) culture and history. This book bridges the timeline between the 19th and 20th Century, and it captures the melting of cultures during trying times, especially in the South. The pronouns "Negroes" and "Colored" utilization in this book accurately describe the terms and titles that were used in the 1930's. History doesn't always paint lovely pictures, and we can't change that. It is what it is. It's history We can't change it, we can't judge it, we can learn from it and do better. That's the point. |
