Summary
  • "African American Lives offers a breathtaking range of African American history through hundreds of poignant biographies. Drawing on the immediacy of individual experience, each uniquely stirring account reaffirms the significance of a familiar hero or restores the luster to a life long forgotten. Inspiring, enchanting, and provocative, African American Lives is peerless in its ambition.".
  • "The first book of its kind since 1982's Dictionary of American Negro Biography, African American Lives leads us into a new era of African American biographical scholarship. In collaboration with Oxford University Press and the American Council of Learned Societies, and with contributions from over four hundred scholars and experts in many fields, the editors and their staff at the W.E.B. Du Bois Institute for African and African American Research at Harvard University have collected in this single volume the lives of many of the most important and most interesting names in African American history."--BOOK JACKET.
