In the 1980s, Willis McGlascoe Carter's handwritten memoir turned up unexpectedly in the hands of an antiques dealer. Its pages told a story of a man born into slavery who, at the onset of freedom, gained an education, became a teacher, and edited a newspaper. From Slave to Statesman tells this extraordinary story.
