Description:
The contributions of African Americans to the development of colonial America were numerous, varied, and -- until now -- largely unknown. This third book in the From African Beginnings series explores the lives of African Americans during this period. Organized by geographical region and featuring portraits of such individuals as poet Phillis Wheatley and former-slave-turned-property-owner Anthony Johnson and vibrant acrylic paintings by Coretta Scott King Award winner James Ransome, here is the fascinating story of the first African Americans and their legacy.
