As a child in Gulfport, Mississippi, in the 1960s, Trethewey could gaze across the water to the fort on Ship Island where Confederate captives once were guarded by black soldiers serving the Union cause.<\/p>\n<p>The racial legacy of the South touched Trethewey\u2019s life on a much more immediate level, too. Many of the poems in Native Guard pay loving tribute to her mother, whose marriage to a white man was illegal in her native Mississippi in the 1960s. Years after her mother\u2019s tragic death, Trethewey reclaims her memory, just as she reclaims the voices of the black soldiers whose service has been all but forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>Trethewey&#8217;s resonant and beguiling collection is a haunting conversation between personal experience and national history.<\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Ecco (April 3, 2007) <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 64 pages <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 0618872655 <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 978-0618872657 <br \/> Reading age                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 14 years and up <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 2.31 pounds <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 5.5 x 0.19 x 8.25 inches <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-medium\">\n<h3 class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the poetry wonderful, accessible, and soothing.
