"More Than a Slave: The Life of Katherine Ferguson" by Margaret Pagan is a fictionalized account of the ex-enslaved woman who founded New York's first Sunday School and pioneered work among the abolitionist and Christian communities of her day. Thoroughly researched and passionately written, "More Than a Slave" tells the story of double emancipation--from the sin of slavery and from the slavery of sin. Anyone wanting more insight into the amazing history of African American believers will be delighted and encouraged by Pagan's work.

Reviewer: Dr. Robert W. Kellemen is the author of the forthcoming "Sacred Companions: The Story of African American Soul Care and Spiritual Direction." He has also authored "Soul Physicians" and "Spiritual Friends."

Author, Margaret D. Pagan wrote very passionately regarding our ancestors struggles of slavery in the early 1800's. The character of Katherine Ferguson portrays a beautifully spirited, God - fearing slave who walked in the vast knowledge that she was indeed `More Than A Slave.' Pagan wrote Katherine Ferguson's character with well-defined diction. I highly recommend this book for those who may have any doubt that God is definitely in control. This would be a great read for children who love to read as well.

Much Respect,
