Can we trust the truthfulness of "To Be A Slave?"

I believe that we can for a few reasons, the first one being that the book was published under "history" in the first place. If the editor didn't think that the information in the book was credible he wouldn't have published it in the first place. The second reasons is that the reviewers have commented on the truthfulness, "This [To be A Slave] is how it was-a powerful chronicle of tragedy skillfully assembled from the eloquent slaves themselves..." Let me continue with the fact that this book is the winner of countless awards, one of which is the Newbery Honor Book Award. It also appears that Mr. Lester was a deeply motivated historian, with a lot of his books dealing with ideas about race and African culture. In conclusion, I believe that Mr. Lester is a credible author for three reasons. The first was that the boook was published in the first place, the second is that critics believe it's truthful, and finally that Mr. Lester was a historian and all his books deal with African Culture.
