This book is "dedicated to the many thousand colored teachers in our country" and contains information missing from most pre-1980s history textbooks. The author goes on to write, "The general tone of most of the histories taught in our schools has been that of the inferiority of the Negro...or left to be implied from the highest laudation of the deeds of one race to the complete exclusion of the other."
