In 1977, Alex Haley made history with his dramatic Pulitzer Prize-winning saga, Roots, read by millions across the world. Now, almost 20 years later, comes the magnificent Queen. Roots was the story of Alex Haley's mother's family. In Queen, he unveils the rich and varied story of his father's family. Beginning in 18th century Ireland, Queen follows Haley's great-great-grandfather through disgrace at the hands of the British to exile in America, where his new life prospers. But it is his son Jass who forges the first true links with the vibrant New World, falling in love with the beautiful and strong-willed slave, Easter. From their passionate union comes Queen, Alex Haley's grandmother... With Queen, the epic saga of Roots is now complete.
