Book excerpt: The Seeking is the moving and uplifting story of the Thomas familyÕs time among the people of Westford, Vermont Ñ a life, writes Thomas, Ònot based on race, but on what we and they [were] like as human beings.Ó Back in print for the first time in fifty years, this edition includes a new introduction that situates The Seeking in the canon of twentieth-century black literature, and a new afterword that follows the fortunes of Thomas and his family in the years after its initial publication. The Seeking is both a story of one remarkable African-American family and a story of race relations in mid-century New England.
