Go Tell It On The Mountain book speaking to the enduring appealThis haunting coming of age story, based in part on James Baldwins childhood in Harlem, is an American classic. Originally published in 1953, Go Tell It on the Mountain was Baldwins first major work. With a potent combination of lyrical compassion and resonant rage, he portrays a fourteen year old boy questioning the terms of his identity. John Grimes is the stepson of a fire breathing and abusive Pentecostal preacher in Harlem during the Depression.
