?The book contains a stunning collection of quotations from major
and minor black leaders, barely literate black farmers, and a host
of black newspapers, many of them rarely quoted elsewhere. The book
serves as a fine introduction to the retrogressive revolution: from
full black voting and office-holding to total withdrawal from
elective politics. Recommended for college and public
libraries.?-Choice
