"The African American Odyssey" just got better with the release of the 3rd edition. Updated accounts, in-depth coverage, a broadened focus (the American West, and beyond America), and the wonderfully helpful enclosed CD which allows for additional research, all make this a comprehensive volume for any and all students of African American history.

The blending of the famous and the unknown, men and women, North and South, slave and free, provides for a tapestry that weaves together both the terror and the triumph of the African American experience which enabled them to move beyond the suffering to a place of healing hope. The faith-basis for so much of the African American triumph could have been covered more comprehensively, though it is more than hinted at in the original sources covered.

I love this textbook. Though much of my learning comes from taking the class, I have learned so much about African American history simply by reading this text. It's great!

The service on receiving this item was impeccable. I received it exactly when they said I would. Came in the exact same shape as stated on the website. I would definitely order from this company again in the near future.

The book arrived in a timely manner, and in good condition. Though the cover is not the same as the book for my course, it is the same edition. Also, your content may be on a different page, but it is still very compatible.

This book is what I wanted. It is in great condition for a used book. Took only 7 days to get and I'm over seas. I recommend you to buy from this seller

Althought the book is great it was not the chapters that my son needed. Although I have sent an email requesting a waiver on the 15% restock fee...I've received no response. Needless to say, I had to incur another fee to get the correct Volume so that he could be prepared for class.

Just beware!

I received this order on time and in excellent condition. I will do business with again.

An effective book, which the young new generation of African Americans can really gain their sense of knowledge from.
