African-Americans in Defense of the Nation

While the role of the African American in American history has been written about extensively, it is often difficult to locate the wealth of material that has been published. African-Americans in Defense of the Nation builds on a long list of early bibliographies concerning the subject, bringing together a broad spectrum of titles related to the African-American participation in America's wars. It covers both military exploits¿as African Americans have been involved in every American conflict since the Revolution¿and their participation in the homefront support.
