Description

368 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm. Life and times of a black southern doctor by Gwendolyn Hoff. ...saga of life in the panhandle of Florida from 1896 to 1956 and a bit beyond. Doctor Alpha Omega Campbell was an actual practicing physician in and around Tallahassee between 1913 and 1956. In 1956, at the age of 67, Campbell was convicted of manslaughter in the death of a Jacksonville mother of two, after allegedly performing a criminal abortion that eventually results in her dying. ....from this time forward, I undertake the task of fictionalizing a seemingly unmeasurable share of people and events.
