This oral autobiography of Rice, a strong-minded black woman born in rural Alabama in 1909, describes her large, devoutly religious family, her work as a maid to white families and her later job as a teacher. ``Her comments on social and racial issues . . . are instructive; sensitive yet objective, she proves able to reckon with differences, not just take sides,'' said PW .
