Pressestimmen
"If the second volume measures up to the first, Harlan's biography of Booker T. Washington will be the best study we have of a black American. It already sets a standard unmatched for the penetration of obscure origins and elaborate myths."--C. Vann Woodward, The New Republic
"A model biography, superbly researched and written, and hauntingly evocative of the flawed man and his bitter times...sure to [be] the last word on this stage of Washington's career for many years to come."--History: Reviews of New Books
"Will stand as one of the significant American biographies of this generation. Harlan's style is easy and readable, his knowledge of the subject profound, his research seemingly exhaustive."--Journal of Southern History

Very Interesting and Engaging
14. Juni 2005
Kudos to Mr. Louis Harlan!
In his interesting work, "The Making of a Black Leader", Mr. Harlan does a wonderful job of capturing the true meaning of Booker T. Washington in all of his dimensions in American history. Prior to reading Mr. Harlan's work, I had many preconceived notions of Booker T., the most infamous being that he was a "traitor" or an "Uncle Tom" of the black race. After reading Mr. Harlan's book, I not only continue to think that Booker T. Washington was one of the premier black conservatives of his time but, one who continues to influence black conservative political thought in contemporary American politics. In all, Mr. Harlan does a great job of presenting a balanced and fair observation of Booker's continuing legacy in the African American community and the larger American family. Using empirical data and substantive research, Mr. Harlan clearly presents many compelling arguments, in which all are supported with great evidence and interesting testimonials from speeches and interviews from years past. I urge all (especially African Americans) to read this wonderful masterpiece of African American literature.

Booker T. Washington: Volume 1

The print in this book is very difficult to read. It is very small. I would not order another book without some visual evidence of the size of the print and will forego the 2nd volume because of the print size. The book itself is extraordinarily good as to the content and the writing style.
