Customer Reviews

This is a history book and everyone should own it.

I learned allot about the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade and that there were also white indentured servants. This book has over 5oo biographical essays on some of the most important Africans in our history. It covers music to religion and science to sports, ranging over a 400 years period. I love reading it and learning about a part of American History that was left out of my history classes.I would recommend it to all students in school and all students of life.
