Washington Post Bestseller
A raw and unbridled novel of slavery in the Deep South.
Shattered by the forces of unrest and upheaval that preceded the Civil War, the Ackerly Plantation is caught up in a frenzy of violence, cruelty, and hatred.
Here is the brutal reality of slavery—of men and women sold at auction—of young girls forced to gratify their master’s lust—of slaves tortured until their only remaining instinct is to strike back . . . to kill.
And the throbbing passions that bind master to slave just as powerfully as slave to master.
Delia Devoted young mother and wife, with no rights but those of a slave—to lose her child in a heartless accident, and to flee her husband to flee her master’s lust.
Jud Delia’s husband. He dared to love her with the fullness of his being. But one of the wealthy well-bred ladies of the plantation wanted him for her personal pleasure.
And Samuel Ackerly, lord of all he surveys, wandering lonely and in pain through the slave quarters at night looking for someone to talk to . . . while Amanda, his wife, reigns in the Great House intent on overthrowing him in favor of her son, Richard. Richard, the destroyed and the destroyer, the bringer of horror.
And many more.
In this hard-hitting second volume of his epic, sweeping Shame and Glory Saga, Jerrold Mundis reveals with savage realism the depravity and degeneration of the final days of slavery in the Deep South in a shocking and unforgettable novel.

Praise for the Shame & Glory novels
“Superior . . . but not for the squeamish. The action is quick, gory and rings with verisimilitude.”
—Publishers Weekly
“The dramatic actions snap along with sea battles, slave rebellions, and moral conflicts, all played out by thoroughly believable characters and building to a shattering climax.”
—Library Journal
“A hard, violent antidote to the Southern Romance . . . an historical anger seldom presented before.”
—Book World

I enjoyed this book as much as the first in the series. The story line held up and the new characters remained as well developed as those in book 1. The author writes of this period with great emotion, and draws the reader back in time in a very realistic way. Start with book 1 and go on from there. I'm certainly going to read the entire series. The series reminds me a great deal of the old Falconhurst series.Product details

Slave The Shame Glory Saga Book 2 edition by Jerrold Mundis Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
good review of history and to know that Africans sold other Africans in the slave trade is a disgrace to the human race
A good read, a tear jerk er!! I read this book in one evening, it kept me on the edge of my seat!!
This book opened my mind on slavery. This was an amazingly well written book. To was also an emotional journey to the end .But,the end of the book left me guessing and wondering wanting to know more.....it left me speechless.
Such a wonderful book. I hated when it ended. I wish it could've ended with Jud and his wife finding each other again instead of leaving one to wonder.
This book was very raw but also extremely authentic. Mr. Mundis writes in a way that is captivating despite the difficult subject matter. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in America history and the true nature of the institution of slavery. You will not want the book to end!
History of insufferable hate and cruelty exacerbated by a race of people who used God and religion to justify their abuse. How ironic is it that the Bible teaches the exact opposite. Generations of African Americans denied the privilege to read w/o the risk of death by the enslaver who knew knowledge is power. Thus, in order to keep them ignorant, degradable & submissive, denied them the right to that power. My history as a Negro then and now leave me bitter.
Book 2 in The Shame and the Glory Saga. This second in the series has nothing to do with book one Slave ship in the series. In fact if you read the two out of order there would be no spoilers. As for the novel it's similar to other books in the slave genre. It's similar,but not as graphic, as Mandingo and other similar novels. I just wished it was a little longer.
I enjoyed this book as much as the first in the series. The story line held up and the new characters remained as well developed as those in book 1.
