This groundbreaking historical expose unearths the lost stories of enslaved persons and their descendants who journeyed into freedom after the Emancipation Proclamation and then back into the shadow of involuntary servitude shortly thereafter in "The Age of Neoslavery."

By turns moving, sobering, and shocking, this unprecedented Pulitzer Prize-winning account reveals the stories of those who fought unsuccessfully against the re-emergence of human labor trafficking, the companies that profited most from neoslavery, and the insidious legacy of racism that reverberates today.

Following the Emancipation Proclamation, convicts--mostly black men--were "leased" through forced labor camps operated by state and federal governments. Using a vast record of original documents and personal narratives, Douglas A. Blackmon brings to light one of the most shameful chapters in American history.

"An astonishing book. . . . It will challenge and change your understanding of what we were as Americans--and of what we are." --Chicago Tribune

Not bad for the price, trust the hardware not the brand
Used it one time, but will leave a review for those wondering. Trimmer: Worked well for out of control vines and leafy hedge. It had enough power and was sharp enough to do the job I wanted which I'd say was small to medium size. I am sure overtime it'll dull, but for the initial tryout I'd give it a 9/10. Feels great in hand, light weight, has the ability to switch from top to side cutting. Blower: Pretty good power, but chews through battery. Absolutely does the job and is very lightweight and easy to use. 10/10 Overall, for the package price I'd say it's worth it. Who knows how long these cheap devices will last, but for light to moderate yard and lawn care they should do the job. If you live on some farm in Iowa then you'll probably want something better and stronger. But for those with a small backyard in the subs somewhere it's more than capable. Batteries are not included. I had used and picked up the aftermarket 8MAH max (DeWalt clones) 2-pack for $50.

Not good
Size: 8.7-INCH
Unfortunately, the shears component broke the very first time I used it, and I cannot find any replacement parts.

Great combo!
Great deal!!! Get this combo now. The Dewalt batteries clip in securely. The trimmer is light and did 12 large bushes and still had 2 bars on the battery. The blower is handy for quick patio blow offs, garage blow outs etc as compared to strapping on the big backpack blower. Both were beyond what I expected.
