This carefully crafted ebook: “BURIED ALIVE BEHIND PRISON WALLS” is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. William Walker was an African American man who was sold again and again to different slave owners and had to flee to Canada to realise his dreams of freedom. But little did he know that his dreams were soon to be shattered and that too ironically after his emancipation. His search for job took him to the dreaded South and on an unfateful day his white neighbour's wife came running to his house to seek shelter from her abusive husband.
