| Synopsis: |
Since their first arrival in the New World, the experiences of individual ethnic groups have often been lost in the larger story of American history. Using a wide arrangement of visual tools, these atlases offer a detailed overview of the experiences and important events surrounding Americans of African, Asian, and Hispanic descent. This A-to-Z guide profiles more than 230 important, influential, and fascinating African Americans and their accomplishments in all fields since colonial times, including the arts, entertainment, politics, science, sports, the military, literature, education, the media, and religion. |
