The Roots of Slavery

Fred's purchase of Shar's Wood was about to give him a crash course in his hometown's slavery roots. It started with a call from two archaeologists who wanted to come do research. Dennis Pogue once worked at Mount Vernon, Doug Sanford at Monticello. But they weren't interested in the ornate house designed by that famous architect. What they cared about was the dilapidated building with the tin roof past the big oak tree behind it. They suspected it had once been slave quarters.
