I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
''The Help'' is set against what was happening in the USA at the time. If you'd like to read more of the historical background we can recommend [[Brothers: The Hidden History of the Kennedy Years by David Talbot]]. For more about life in Mississippi (although at an earlier time) try [[Roll Of Thunder, Hear My Cry by Mildred D Taylor]]. We've also enjoyed a history of the blues from its origins in the Delta region of Mississippi in [[Delta Blues by Ted Gioia]]. We'd like to recommend you some fiction but, frankly, there's nothing to compare with ''The Help''although from Singapore, we have [[The Maid's Room by Fiona Mitchell]].
