Meticulously researched and replete with archival illustrations from newspapers and rare periodicals, John W. Blassingames groundbreaking history offers a unique look at the economic and social life of black people in New Orleans during Reconstruction. Not a conventional political treatment, Blassingames history instead emphasizes the educational, religious, cultural, and economic activities of African Americans during the late nineteenth century.Blending historical and sociological perspectives, and drawing with skill and imagination upon a variety of sources, [Blassingame] offers fresh insights into an oft-studied period of Southern history. . . . In both time and place the author has chosen an extraordinarily revealing vantage point from which to view his subject. -Neil R.
