And the reason is simple. The Nego's part in shaping our country is perhaps the most neglected of all topics in our history books." "Here is history that the reader can see and touch, in the monuments, battlefields, and buildings that testify to the contribution of Negroes to America. Using a unique format, the author has traced the Negro role in the progress of America and associated each event with physical locations in each of the fifty states." Excellent read!! Book itself is cloth royal blue boards with black spine and gold lettering on spine. "www.shelfari.com"
