Synopsis
This is the sad story of how millions of African people were kidnapped and transported via ship to the United States where they were sold as slaves. The 64 paintings in this wordless book depict the horrific conditions under which these people were forced to live during their voyage--another facet of the shameful history of slavery.

Publisher's Note
The Middle Passage is the name given to one of the most tragic ordeals in history: the cruel and terrifying journey of enslaved Africans across the Atlantic Ocean. In this seminal work, master artist Tom Feelings tells the complete story of this horrific diaspora in sixty-four extraordinary narrative paintings. Achingly real, they draw us into the lives of the millions of African men, women, and children who were savagely torn from their beautiful homelands, crowded into disease-ridden "death ships", and transported under nightmarish conditions to the so-called New World. An introduction by noted historian Dr. John Henrik Clarke traces the roots of the Atlantic slave trade and gives a vivid summary of its four centuries of brutality. The Middle Passage reaches us on a visceral level. No one can experience it and remain unmoved. But while we absorb the horror of these images, we also can find some hope in them. They are a tribute to the survival of the human spirit, and the humanity won by the survivors of the Middle Passage belongs to us all.

Industry Reviews
"The subject matter is clearly for mature audiences, for children no younger than 12 and for those developmentally ready to process the horror without being overwhelmed by it. But it is clearly the most distinguished picture book of the year."
San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - Susan Faust
