This book is good, too.

Just not as good as Volume One and Volume Three. It's very informative.

Fabulous

I read the 3 volume set many years ago and my eyes were opened to the fact that no one is pure black, white or whatever. I recall thinking about that madman Hitler's dream of a master race while reading the volumes and realizing then that none of his Germans were pure "Aryans" during his reign. Even though some of the race-mixing was done through brutality the most touching thing about the book(s) is the fact that attraction and love transcend racial boundaries and isn't that the way it should be?

SIMPLY THE TRUTH

ACTUALLY THIS IS A 3 VOLUME SET,VOLUME 1 IS THE OLD WORLD,VOL2 IS THE NEW WORLD (the america's) AND VOL3 IS WHY WHITE AND BLACK MIX IN SPITE OF OPPOSITION.THIS VERY HARD TO FIND SET IS A MUST FOR ANY PERSON WHO HAS QUESTIONED THE MINISCULE CONTRIBUTION,ATTRIBUTED TO BLACKS IN MOST ACCEPTABLE HISTORY BOOKS TODAY.THROUGH THEM I DISCOVERED THAT BLACKS HAVE BEEN MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS TO EVERY MAJOR DOCUMENTED CIVILIZATION.THEY PRESENT STARTLING FACTS THAT TOTALLY DECIMATE THE NOTION OF A PURE RACE OF PEOPLES, AND THE NOTION THAT THE MAJOR ROLE FOR BLACKS IN WORLD HISTORY,WAS SLAVERY.MUCH TRUTH TO CONSUME HERE.BLACK POPES IN ROME,BLACK CEASAR'S IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE,3 MAJOR BLACK UNIVERSITIES THAT VIRTUALLY TAUGHT ALL THE LEARNED MEN OF ITS TIME,2 ON THE EUROPEAN CONTINENT,WHERE JUST SOME OF THE FACTS REVEALED WITH IN.THE MAJORITY OF THE SPANIARDS THAT INVADED MEXICO WERE PEOPLE OF COLOR,AND FINALLY THAT THE SECOND ELECTED PRESIDENT OF MEXICO WAS A FREED BLACK SLAVE FROM AMERICA,,NO ONE EVER TAUGHT THIS HISTORY WHERE I CAME FROM!

for those curious about race mixing

I read and studied J.A. Rogers books the most during a period of time when I was obsessed with blackness. As a black man in america, I don't think being obsessed with blackness is anything to be ashamed of however. It's simply a reaction to racism.In this second volume, Roger's focuses on the new world and shows that the inhabitants of the americas are far from being pure racially. As discussed in the previous volume, race mixing with blacks took place all over Europe. In the new world however, whites not only mixed with blacks but also with the indigenous peoples of the americas including the caribbean. Also, there is good reason to believe that some of the indigenous peoples of the americas were already somewhat mixed before the europeans arrived. The one thing which I really like about J.A. Rogers books is the fact that he is not afraid to confront certain issues which are embarrasing to most whites even today. Did you ever wonder why some black people from the caribbean and south and central america don't like being called black? Some will say because they aren't black, they are Spanish or Brazilian. Based on historical evidence Roger's points out that the blacks of the caribbean and south and central america are just as "black" as the blacks in america. It's just that some of them may look different because race mixing took place in different degrees in different areas.Unfortuantely, the issue of race mixing is a very touchy issue, so a lot that is in books like this cannot be talked about without angering people unless you're in some sort of "radical" black group. Therefore, much of what is contained in this book should be kept to oneself. Regardless of what country someone is from, they don't like being told that they are of black african ancestry. Most "non-whites" will say they simply don't care and are irritated by the topic.
