Edited bythe Department of Missionary Education Board of Education of the Northern Baptist Convention [...]. Philadelphia : The Judson Press, (June 1922). First Printing. Pp (16),[3]-210,+ frontis + 19 leaves of plates. 8Vo, red cloth, black lettering to front board and spine, inset photographic illustration to front board. An early 20th century book on Baptist missionary work among the African Americans. “The Negro race is now viewing itself from its own watch-towers. Having seen its own background, it has a new perspective, and it outlines a new endeavor. Among all the stories of racial emergence from heathen existence into ordered Christian living, there is no story more trilling that that of the upward climbing of this unprivileged but not unfavored race. The yearning aspirations, wavering emotions, and conflicting passions interwoven by a deep religious sense, have been very happily summed up by the author in one expressive word, RACE GRIT. The author has done more than restate an old question. He has given to the reader a wealth of human interest materials in the form of stories, studies, interviews, and testimonials. Some of the studies are almost portraits, while there is an abundance of fine anecdote material. Here are fresh glimpses into the land of promise toward which the Negro strives.” - from the Preface. Light wear to spine ends and corners bumped, small smudge to ffep, else very good. 75.00 Price:
