Review of “Glory Over Everything: Beyond the Kitchen House” by Kathleen Grissom

April 1, 2016 by Ann Marie 3 Comments

"I looked at my hands to see if I was the same person now I was free. There was such a glory over everything. The sun came up like gold through the trees, and over the fields, and I felt like I was in heaven." -Harriet Tubman I absolutely loved The Kitchen House and was thrilled when I heard Kathleen Grissom was writing a sequel.
