More Dirty Little Secrets
About Black History, Its Heroes, and Other Troublemakers
Volume II
by Dr. Claud Anderson and Brant Anderson

Description:

In the magnetic style that has made all of Dr. Anderson's books best sellers, this book takes the reader on a whirlwind tour of American history from the very earliest days of the country, to our present day. More Dirty Little Secrets speaks for slaves who could neither write nor keep records of their accomplishments. It fills in many gaps left by Whites who saw no need to record for history, the achievements of Black folk. This is Black History at its entertaining best.

Here is a sample of what the reader will find inside. Did you know:

• Slaves were born in, lived in and were sold on the lawn of the White House? Seventeen U.S. Presidents were slave owners.
• The last Confederate general to surrender was Stand Waite, an American Indian?
• The state song of Texas, the Yellow Rose of Texas, is about a Black prostitute?
• In a photo in Life Magazine, President Dwight D. Eisenhower's mother appeared to many to be a Black woman?
• The first scalping victims in America were Blacks? The state of South Carolina paid man hunters a bounty for the scalps, with ears attached, of runaway slaves?
• In the early 1900s, Black Americans manufactured and sold their own automobiles?

If you like Dr. Anderson's previous books, you'll love More Dirty Little Secrets.
