From 1915 through the early 1920s, American auto racing experienced rapid and exciting change. Some of the greatest drivers in racing history were active during this time. This history recalls the era's cigar-shaped speedway specials and monumental board tracks, the heavy-footed drivers, fearless mechanics, gifted engineers and enthusiastic backers.
?[The] book does make a significant contribution to our understanding of black history. It is well researched and documented. Whenever possible the author has wisely permitted the Negro to speak for himself. The appendices are especially useful. Included there are speeches of such outstanding black spokesmen as Martin Delaney, Frederick Douglass, Robert Purvis, Samuel Cornish, and Henry Highland Garnet. Historians will also be grateful for the rather extensive bibliography and for the practice of placing notes at the end of each chapter.?-History
