Beskrivning
In The Marion Thompson Wright Reader, acclaimed historian Graham Russell Hodges provides a scholarly, accessible introduction to a modern edition of Marion Thompson Wright's classic book, The Education of Negroes in New Jersey and to her full body of scholarly work. First published in 1941 by Teachers College Press, Thompson's landmark study has been out of print for decades. Such rarity understates the book's importance. Thompson's major book and her life are significant for the histories of New Jersey, African Americans, local and national, women's and education history. Drawing upon Wright's work, existing scholarship, and new archival research, this new landmark scholarly edition, which includes an all-new biography of this pioneering scholar, underscores the continued relevance of Marion Thompson Wright.

Recensioner i media

"Hodges has organized a wealth of important writings authored by Wright in this Reader that now might be used by scholars interested in continuing to discuss Wright's life, and significance, not only in the history of African Americans in New Jersey but also in the history of the United States."— Hettie Williams, NJS Journal"The Marion Thompson Wright Companion has great potential to be the book of record on African American history in the state. The extensive research, numerous examples, and textual connections make this book a major contribution to New Jersey black history."— Maxine Lurie, author of Envisioning New Jersey: An Illustrated History of the Garden State
