Book Reviews of The Complete Idiot's Guide to African American History
Book Review: A must read for anyone who wants to learn about contribution
Summary: 5 Stars
Melba J. Duncan's new book is a must read for anyone interested in American history. Too often, books about the history of Africans in America fail to mention the significant contributions of Africans. In spite of great hardships, Africans propelled forward with such remarkable spirit; this book highlights those achievements.
Melba Duncan looks at where we came from, where we are, and most importantly, where we are going and focuses on the importance of education, entrepreneurship, and strategy.
I highly recommend this book to all!
