The Colored Cadet at West Point (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, first published in 1878, chronicles the life of Henry Ossian Flipper, the first African-American cadet to graduate from the prestigious West Point Military Academy. Written as an autobiography, the book draws on Flipper's own notes and observations to provide a detailed and nuanced account of his experiences at West Point and his path to graduation. The author provides insights into the strenuous demands of West Point life, and candidly recounts the racism and discrimination he faced as the only black cadet. Ultimately, this book is a testament to the power of perseverance and the importance of breaking down barriers and defying expectations. Flipper's story remains as relevant today as it was when he first wrote it, and his book serves as a powerful reminder of the challenges faced by those who seek to overcome systemic barriers. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334077982_0
