Are you ever curious about the history that lies under your feet? Do you wonder about family secrets or how misbeliefs are passed from one generation to another? Then Half-Truths, Carol Baldwin's award-winning novel, is a book for you. Come meet her and find out about her 18-year journey to bring this book to life.
Half-Truths is a Southern story about two girls in 1950—one White and one Black—who discover they are second cousins. Despite a rocky friendship, they support one another as they challenge prejudice against Blacks and women at the cusp of civil rights and job equality for women.
