520    "A writer in search of his roots discovers stories of 
       African American struggle, sacrifice, and achievement. In 
       The Garretts of Columbia, author David Nicholson tells a 
       multigenerational story of Black hope and resilience. 
       Carefully researched and beautifully written, The Garretts
       of Columbia engages readers with stories of a family whose
       members believed in the possibility of America. Nicholson 
       relates the sacrifices, defeats, and affirming victories 
       of a cohort of stalwart men and women who embraced 
       education, fought for their country, and asserted their 
       dignity in the face of a society that denied their 
       humanity and discounted their abilities. The letters of 
       Anna Maria 'Mama' Threewitts Garrett, along with other 
       archival sources and family stories passed down through 
       generations, provided the framework that allowed Nicholson
       to trace his family's deep history, and with it a story 
       about Black life in segregated Columbia, SC, from the 
       years after the Civil War to World War II"--|cProvided by
