Afro-Americans in Bradley County, 1800–1930
"Princella and MacArthur Davis have brought
to the forefront a vivid and much needed pictorial
cornucopia of Bradley County Black history.
"Afro-Americans in Bradley County," 1800–1930
is a first introduction work that spans much of
the county and breaks new historical ground.
The Davis’ book is fully indexed and contains
370 pages of wonderful unpublished photographs.
The authors appear to have found the key to open
the door for other studies in Afro-American history.
I wholly recommend this book and encourage
all Afro-Americans in Bradley County to use this
work as an example for compiling other sources
of history from within their community."
