About This Book

A selective bibliography compiled to guide students, teachers, librarians, researchers, and the general public, surveying printed and nonprint materials related to African Americans in the United States. It opens with a preface recounting the assembling of Afro‑American holdings by an early Library of Congress staffer and explains scope and symbols. The work organizes entries by topical sections — reference works; art; biography; civil rights; economic conditions; education; folklore; slavery and Reconstruction; legal status; literature and criticism; music; religion; organizations; race relations; regional and social studies; and more — and provides indexes, notes on sources, and suggested readings rather than exhaustive coverage.
