Explanation To Books The Land (Logans #1)

The son of a prosperous landowner and a former slave, Paul-Edward Logan is unlike any other boy he knows. His white father has acknowledged him and raised him openly-something unusual in post-Civil War Georgia. But as he grows into a man he learns that life for someone like him is not easy. Black people distrust him because he looks white. White people discriminate against him when they learn of his black heritage. Even within his own family he faces betrayal and degradation. So at the age of fourteen, he sets out toward the only dream he has ever had: to find land every bit as good as his father's, and make it his own. Once again inspired by her own history, Ms. Taylor brings truth and power to the newest addition to the award-winning Logan family stories.

The authors note made this a definite 5 star read I love the Logan family!

One of my favorite books ever :)This is the first book in the Logan saga. Which, by the way, must be one of my favorite sagas/series ever. In short, this book chronicles the life of Cassie's grandfather, Paul. It depicts his life as he struggles to accept his multiracial heritage(he's N.American, Black, and White). He was born a slave, to his slave mother and his master father. He grew up actually being acknowledged by his white father, which was rare. I guess it's kind of hard to explain unless

I like Taylor a whole bunch. Her stories come from her own family, and her stories are told with a tenderness and humor. Her books are a great way for kids to learn about racism and injustice.

The LandMidred D. Taylor375 pgs.Have you ever suffered from identity crisis? Have you ever thought am I to call myself black or am I to call myself white? Have you ever let society choose your ethnicity for you? In the land Paul-Edward Logan faced all of these questions. Paul suffered from identity crisis all throughout his childhood. His mother was a former slave and black and his father was the owner of the planation, the master to the slaves and white. Paul himself was born into slavery and

The Land is a young adult classic that sadly I never encountered in my youth. It takes place in a post-Civil War South. Paul Edward is the son of a former slave owner. Unlike most blacks boys, Paul's father acknowledges him, educated him in a time when it was illegal for blacks to have an education and treats him as his own. In some ways that sounds wonderful, but in other ways it makes it more difficult for Paul to live as a black man (even though he can pass for white) in the South because he

Mostly interested in this novel (and series) for the ways Taylor writes about Black land ownership and place-attachment. I definitely need to read more scholarship and history about the subject, I do see some of the problematic tropes of Native erasure that you typically see in white-authored novels. There's a tenuous connection to Native ancestry at work in this novel, but the black-white racial dichotomy dominates the plot and character development.
