Patapsco: A Novel of Benjamin Banneker

Patapsco is a novel that fictionalizes the life of the Early American scientist, Benjamin Banneker. It is written in a style that approximates the language of the Eighteenth Century. While the characters and events are both real and imagined, the accomplishments of Banneker are historically accurate. "This work could have been called, A SYMPHONY Of BENJAMIN BANNEKER. The life of this African American genius was such that its rhythms, movements and colors were in precise design. Banneker was rightly recognized, in his time, as an American original.
