Review Quotes: "Contributes to the field of the history of education by offering a personal portrait of a black school administrator during the Jim Crow era. . . . Historians of education have tended to focus on black leaders in higher education, and Walker's book not only widens the lens but also reveals the complexity of the position." -- Jayne Beilke (Dept. of Educational Studies, Ball State University Teachers College), H-Education Reviews
