The Herndons

Sobre o livro
"Born a slave and reared a sharecropper, Alonzo Herndon (1858-1927) seemed destined to drudgery in the red clay fields of Georgia. Within forty years of Emancipation, however, he had amassed a fortune that far surpassed that of his White slave-master father.". "Through his barbering, real estate, and life insurace ventures, Herndon would become one of the wealthiest and most respected African American business figures of his era. This illustrated book chronicles Alonzo Herndon's ascent and his remarkable family's achievements in Jim Crow Atlanta."--BOOK JACKET.
