Lucy Daniels

Caleb, My Son Lucy Daniels

This distinguished first novel, a disturbing drama of the South first published in 1956 by J. P. Lippincott, depicts a father-son conflict intensified by racial inequality and clashing standards of heritage and justice. "This book is the best document I know for doing away with [racial inequality] as it exists today . . . In the world it will have a real impact" Eleanor Roosevelt "A skilled performance . . . the book sways with affirmations as ancient as the Old Testament" Carl Sandburg
