GREAT AMERICAN NEGROES

by Ben Richardson ‧ RELEASE DATE: Oct. 15, 1956

A revised edition, this has been extended and brought up to date to include thumbnail biographies of 26 prominent American Negroes. Short and to the point, the sketches present some on-the-scene reporting to show the characters of their subjects in their youth, then move efficiently into their life accomplishments. Twenty-six biographies of Negroes in all walks of life- music, politics, social work, science, sports, literature- these should have their place as good reference material and a tribute to some of the better American citizens.
