A Biographical History of African Americans is the most
comprehensive, pocket sized, scholarly volume on African
American biography published in the last three decades.
The book gives an introductory overview to African
American history, followed by a selection of notable
African American subjects, arranged in four topical and
chronological periods. It is diverse as to gender,
geography and vocations. The work has been particularly
concerned with profiling notable subjects who have not
appeared in other dictionaries, directories or
encyclopedias. While it can be used as a text or
supplementary reader as well as a general reference
work, its readable style will also appeal to a popular
audience.
