| Synopsis: |
The African-American's struggle for freedom and equality has been one of the truly heroic episodes in American history. Yet, until now, there has been no reference book presenting an overview of the century-long struggle for civil rights under a single cover. This encylopedia fills that void. Covering the post-Civil War period through the 1980s, the book includes more than 800 short articles, arranged alphabetically and written by more than 100 authors, on a wide variety of individuals, organizations, events, court cases and other items. Each entry concludes with bibliographical references providing ready access to the literature in the field. Librarians at all types of libraries from the largest reference to the smallest public or school library, should find this volume a convenient source of information. |
