""Belvoir is very well organized and well written. Books that do a deep dive into specific sites are always welcome. They are particularly important if they are accessible to the general reader as well as to archaeologists. Both of these audiences will enjoy this book."" --Barbara J. Little, author of Bending Archaeology toward Social Justice: Transformational Action for Positive Peace ""This is a must-read book. It illustrates historical archaeology at its finest and is a tour-de-force of fieldwork techniques and interpretations."" --Richard Veit, coeditor of Archaeologies of African American Life in the Upper Mid-Atlantic

It is not to shame anyone or point fingers and appoint blame, but to give an accurate account of the lives of people who were unwillingly brought to these shores to build and maintain the lives of their enslavers."" --Wanda Watts, resident of Baltimore City.
