When Dr. Jonathan Bryant published a book about a historic and often overlooked court case, he suspected that it might be "just another little dusty book that is remaindered after a couple of months." But since Dark Places of the Earth: The Voyage of the Slave Ship 'Antelope' hit the shelves in July, the Georgia Southern University history professor has been enjoying unexpected fame. Over the last few months, Bryant has been a featured guest on Georgia Public Broadcasting's "On Second Thought" with Celeste Headly and NPR's "The Diane Rehm Show."
