Description:
''A well-written evocation of 'the common hopes and loves and labors' of African-American men and women in [Newport and Saratoga Springs], and it is a solid social history that makes a firm case for both similarity and local distinctiveness among urban black communities before the Great Depression.'' -- Andrew Wiese, Journal of American History ''Armstead has written a compelling urban history in which she places the experiences of blacks in the resort towns of Saratoga and Newport within the context of the larger African-American community... Well written and researched... Illustrated with breathtaking photographs.'' -- Lillian Serece Williams, American Historical Review ''This book is a genuinely interesting read. Any Saratoga history buff would enjoy it.'' - Judy Meagher, The Saratogian
