Baltimore, the nineteenth century Black capital

Leroy Graham (Author)
"This work recounts mainly the efforts of four remarkable men who devoted themselves to an unprecedented degree to make Baltimore a just and livable city for Blacks. They were Elisha Tyson, William Watkins, George Alexander Hackett, and Isaac Myers. Their endeavors were of such dimensions as to be noticed by the nation. In fact, they made the city throghout most of the nineteenth century a focal point in Black history--the nation's unofficial Black capital."--Forword
