Against the tide : the turbulent times of a black entrepreneur
"Through hard work and determination, Hansford C. Bayton would rise from humble beginnings to become the captain and owner of five excursion and mail delivery steamboats that plied the Rappannock River during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Unusual for an African American, he would acquire wealth and the respect of both blacks and whites. Nevertheless, his boats were burned one by one. But with each malicious burning, and with lynchings on the rise, he would build again." -- Back cover
