Description

One of the foremost African American intellectual leaders of the 20th century, Booker T. Washington, an educator, author, and orator, is best known for his advocacy of Black progress through education and entrepreneurship. The Norton Library edition of his seminal autobiography, Up from Slavery, features the text of the first (1901) edition, explanatory endnotes, and an introduction by Jarvis R. Givens (Harvard University) that highlights Washingtons life and work, discusses and contextualizes his strategies for racial uplift, and invites a nuanced reading of an author often dismissed for his conservative ideology. This purchase offers access to the digital ebook only.
