In this important work Professor Donald Franklin Joyce surveys the development of black book publishing in the United States from 1817 through 1981, and black publishing in the nineteenth century is presented in the light of emerging black institutions. ... Through extensive research in primary and secondary resources, Professor Joyce has written a much-needed book, one that will surely be a significant contribution to history.-Journal of Southern History
