Voice of America: Historian quoted on commemoration of former slave

An article on Voice of America reports more than 60 members of the Brace family gathered recently in Vermont to celebrate their common history and pay tribute to their common ancestor, Jeffrey Brace; the article quotes Kari Winter, professor of American studies. "When I first read it, no one knew if it was a true story or if it was a novel by Benjamin Franklin Prentiss. No one had done sufficient research on it to know the story. I was persuaded by the voice in the narrative -- the voice of Jeffrey Brace," she said.
