"A fascinating story."--
Virginia Magazine
"The detail of the discussion, the reliance on considerable primary evidence, and the overall contribution of the understanding of the development of southern education make this a valuable addition to the historical literature on the South...Highly recommended."--
Choice
"The first comprehensive picture of the evolution of the program from its origins at Tuskegee Institute in the 1910s until its termination in 1932. . . . Hoffschwelle assesses the strengths and weaknesses of the program and its larger significance for the status of African Americans and southern race relations in the early twentieth century."--
American Historical Review
"Successfully depicts the schools as integral to the African American communities they served in that the schools and what they represented--black agency in providing education for the community--were focal points of African American southern identity and local pride."--
Journal of American Ethnic History
"The layers of this book are tied together by the extraordinary detail of the archival research. . . . [A] tribute to the multi-layered institution of the Rosenwald schools."--
Southern Quarterly
"[A] compelling narrative, a breadth of scope, and a sophistication of interpretation that make this a must-read for anyone interested in American cultural history."--
