Product Information

From the time of his famous Atlanta address in 1895 until his death in 1915, Booker T. Washington was the preeminent African-American educator and race leader. But to historians and biographers of the last hundred years, Washington has often been described as an enigma, a man who rose to prominence because he offered a compromise with the white South: he was willing to trade civil rights for economic and educational advancement. Thus one historian called Washington's time the "nadir of Negro life in America." Raymond W. Smock's interpretive biography explores Washington's rise from slavery to a position of power and influence that no black leader had ever before achieved in American history. He took his own personal quest for freedom and acceptance within a harsh, racist climate and turned it into a strategy that he believed would work for millions. Was he, as later critics would charge, an Uncle Tom and a lackey of powerful white politicians and industrialists? Sifting the evidence, Mr. Smock sees Washington as a field general in a war of racial survival, his compromise a practical attempt to solve an immense problem. He lived and worked in the midst of an undeclared race war, and his plan was to find a way to survive and to flourish despite the odds against him.

A brief and readable biography that makes accessible the arguments that have dominated Washington historiograpy. Recommended. General and undergraduate libraries., This biography of Washington is a joy to read. Not only because Smock astutely identifies and assesses the sometimes bewildering complexity of Washington's life and career--the many twists, turns, and ambiguities of a complex, driven black leader--but also because Smock does so with uncommon brevity and clarity. All this, along with an obvious, deep understanding and rare feeling for the tragic times in which Washington's turbulent career unfolded., A powerful survey, this is a fine choice. . . .

I am in acquisition mode for physical media, and Doctor Who is a staple. Big Finish has been a staple for quite some time; however, it's a BBC Show, and recently, I have been enjoying classic Who from Auntie Beep! Item is as described. Bid with Confidence!!
