The Education of the Negro Prior
to 1861
By DR. CARTER G. WOODSON
This book is unique in that it is the first attempt to write an account of the efforts put forth to enlighten the Negroes during the days of slavery. It is constantly referred to as an authority constituting a new page in the history of the black man. This is one of the few books treating Negro history scientifically.
