1885 FIRST BLACK HISTORY BY BLACK AUTHOR. History of the Negro Race in America from 1619 to 1880. Rare. Bible The Glory of Their TimesGeorge Washington Williams History of the Negro Race in America from 1619 to 1880 has been called "a monumental act of intellectual reclamation," as the first comprehensive, scholarly history of African Americans authored by a Black person. More than just a chronicle, this "millennial scope" work shattered the era's dominant pro slavery myths by replacing biased folklore with a rigorous, objective narrative built on years of primary research.
