Soft cover. Condition: Good. American Negroes: A Handbook by Edwin R. Embree. New York: The John Day Company, 1942. Special Edition for Study Groups. An important and particularly interesting wartime-era handbook on African American life, history, and social conditions, published at a time when questions of race, citizenship, education, employment, and social equality were receiving increasing national attention. Edwin R. Embree, a prominent educator and president of the Julius Rosenwald Fund, was deeply involved in efforts to document and improve the social and economic conditions of African Americans. This edition was specially issued for study groups, reflecting the period's growing use of organized discussion and adult education to address American racial issues. The book remains in its original paper wrappers, which are intact and show some staining and wear. The front/title page has some light smudging. The interior pages are otherwise clean, bright, and sharp, with only a small smudge on one index page. No marginalia, underlining, or ex libris markings noted. An appealing copy of a historically significant work, particularly interesting as an example of the educational literature being circulated for organized study and discussion of African American life in the United States during the early 1940s.…
