From Slavery To Freedom: A History of African-Americans (7th edition)

Since its publication in 1947, "From Slavery to Freedom" has maintained its preeminence as the most authoritative history of African Americans. The authors detail the journey of African Americans from their origin in the civilizations of Africa, through slavery in the Western Hemisphere, to the successful struggle for freedom in the West Indies, Latin America, and the U.S. This edition has been revised to include expanded coverage of Africa and two four-page color inserts. 60 illustrations and 4 maps.
