Rise to be a People

Lamont Dominick Thomas

4.9/5 (11324 ratings)

Description:Based on prodigious transatlantic research, Thomas's study presents Cuffe (1759-1817), the black Quaker ship captain, merchant, and African colonizer, as the most widely publicized and admired black American of his day. Thomas's Cuffe combined entrepreneurship with philanthropy in promoting education and emigration to Africa and in building a network of antislavery supporters. Thomas develops a fuller Cuffe than is available elsewhere, and he moves the discussion of Cuffe's significance away from emigration and missionary endeavors alone, but he is uncritical in ascribing motives to his subject. Still, the book is useful for its treatment of the links between free black and Quaker reformers and for its description of commerce.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
