Excerpt from A Boy's Life of Booker T. Washington The single aim in telling the story that follows is to interest boys in the life of Booker T. Washington. This man's life was of such singular and vital importance in the history of his own race and in the history of our country that it ought to be familiar to all the youth of the land, and to the negro youth especially, since it is the greatest inspiration to the latter to be found in the annals of American history. There has been no attempt to be original or exhaustive in the treatment. While a great mass of material has been consulted, it should be frankly stated that the story follows very closely the material found in Washington's Up from Slav ery and My Larger Education and Scott and Stowe's Booker T. Washington: Builder of a Civilization. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Booker T. Washington: Builder of a Civilization This is not a biography in the ordinary sense. The exhaustive Life and Letters of Booker T. Washington re mains still to be compiled. In this more modest work we have simply sought to present and interpret the chief phases of the life of this man who rose from a slave boy to be the leader of ten millions of people and to take his place for all time among America's great men. In fact, we have not even touched upon his childhood, early training, and education, because we felt the story of those early strug gles and privations had been ultimately Well told in his own words in Up from Slavery. This autobiography, however, published as it was fifteen years before his death, brings the story of his life only to the threshold of his greatest achievements. In this book we seek to give the full fruition of his life's work. Each chapter is complete in itself. Each presents a complete, although by no means exhaustive, picture of some phase of his life.

Excerpt from Remember Booker T. Washington It is a thrilling thing to recount the achieve ments of his remarkable career. It is an ih spiring thing to stand upon these grounds and view the monument which he himself erected as a perpetual service to his people. But it is more inspiring still for us to look upon his career and note the discouragements and handi caps which he overcame as he won his way into the hearts of men and women the world over and wrought the achievements of which all of us are proud. It is with this in mind that I ask you to think with me for a moment just why it is valuable and why it is worth while for every Negro boy and girl to remem ber Booker T. Washington.

In this sequel to the landmark work Up from Slavery, Booker T. Washington discusses his time spent at the school which would later become Tuskegee University.

Excerpt from Booker T. Washington, Five Years After For almost a generation the name of Booker T. Washington occupied a large share of the attention of his fellowmen. The nation delighted to mark the wisdom of his sayings and to write his speeches in their books. He occupied as large a place for as long a time in public esteem and favor as any man of his genera tion. He bore the stamp of natural greatness. His wisdom was intuitive. According to African lore, hewas born with a caul over his face. He knew without learning, and understood with the certainty of instinct. Like Abraham Lincoln, he possessed an infallible inner sense whose guidance he followed with satisfied assur ance. He possessed the genius of common sense, and the philosophy of simple things. His was a universal mind. While he dealt with the most complex and distressing social particulars, his spirit always rose above the temporary intricacies of besetting conditions and lived in an atmosphere that was calm and serene. Booker T. Washington was, perhaps, the only man of eminence of his day who was free from race prejudice. He neither despised nor esteemed any man because of his race. Race prejudice is often extolled as a virtue, but the moral genius of mankind reprobates it as a vice. Though corporally aligned with the Negro race, morally and spiritually he was heir of all the ages. Flesh and blood did not reveal to him the truth by which he guided his path. Progress from enmity to amity is the highest mark of human culture. Love your enemies; do good to them that hate you, is the goal of human strivings which the carnally minded still deem impossible of realization.

Excerpt from From Slave to College President Being the Life Story of Booker T. Washington Mr Newton has been at pains to inform himself from every avail able source upon which it was possible to draw for a biography of John Brown. The result is a most exhaustive work, in which the part Brown took in the Kansas border wars, all his reparations for Har er's F erry and what occurred there, and his tria are fully related. Tactically no day between Brown's condemnation and his execution - nearly a month - is ignored, and many most interesting particulars are given of Brown's family. The judgments of his great countrymen, Whittier, Thoreau and Emerson, as well as that of the great romancer, Victor Hugo, are related, and interestin sketches are given of many prominent men of all parties with w om Brown came in contact.

Excerpt from A Joshua in the Camp, or the Life of Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee, Alabama It is no our purpose to cut down any tree in the forest that ours may appear the more towering; but we can. With a single stroke of the pen, show the fallacy of the claims to leadership of all those great men whose names have come to us in connection with the position which Douglass so ably filled for more than a quarter of a century; yet we admire each man for those accomplishments which have redounded to the good of the race.
