Black Congressmen During Reconstruction
Book (italiano):
During the Reconstruction period, African Americans from former slave- owning states, including lawyers, educators, businessmen, and ministers, were elected to Congress in remarkable numbers. Profiles of 22 of these politicians, plus excerpts from documents illuminating their activities in Congress, are collected here for students and general readers. An introduction overviews the Reconstruction period, and each document and speech is preceded by a brief introduction. Middleton teaches history at North Carolina State University.
