Leon & Juliette

Amani

Tells the forbidden love story of Leon Herckenrath and Juliette Louise McCormick de Magnan in Charleston, South Carolina anno 1820. 
Its written in a historical manner which made it seem appropriate for the setting and the truthness in it.

Its written for easy reading pleasure and is definitely something to read while sitting in a train. It tells the harsh truth about slavery in Charleston and how the people thought and wrote about it with quotations from letters. This book made history accessible to understand for someone who isn't into history.
