"This book is a new production from teachers with a new thought. Both authors are teachers of experience in the District of Columbia Public Schools. In supplementing the work of the regular curriculum the have found it possible to teach pupils much about the background of the Negro without encroaching upon the work required in the prescribed courses.."
