"Richly illustrated, this special edition of Du Bois's seminal work vividly conveys the story of African American life, politics, music, and culture from slavery through reconstruction, and up to the dawn of the twentieth century. Most of the photos, engravings, and documents are from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and depict slavery and its legacy, African-American daily life, and the prominent figures and events associated with the book's content."--Jacket |
