Congratulations to Tiya Miles (@tiyamiles), the winner of the 2022 Cundill History Prize for ALL THAT SHE CARRIED: THE JOURNEY OF ASHLEY’S SACK, A BLACK FAMILY KEEPSAKE.
2022 Chair of the Jury J. R. McNeill declared “Tiya Miles’ ALL THAT SHE CARRIED is the winner, in a field of superb books, because of its clear and moving prose, its imaginative research, and the way the author illuminates the human condition through a family story. The world of enslaved women in the antebellum South is, by the standards of U. S. history, extremely poorly documented, but Miles has risen to that challenge in ways that show the best of the historian’s craft. For me, the vividness and immediacy of the writing is the strongest suit of this powerful book.”
