shareBOTH "Confessions Of Nat Turner" books are fiction. Akin to the stream of lurid, present-day, celebrity biographies put out by Kitty Kelly.
No man lies so boldly as the man who is indignant.
The Thomas Gray "Confessions" is part of the court record. It's the basis of our knowledge on Nat Turner. There is very little information from other sources.
