5.0 out of 5 stars
An engaging book about African Americans in the Old West,
By A Customer
This review is from: Black Cowboys (African American Achievers) (Library Binding)
This entertaining and informative book for young adults not only describes the daily lives of black cattlemen; it also includes tales of black pioneers, settlers, lawmen, and outlaws, whose names have been largely forgotton but who were influential in shaping the American West. Despite what we may read and see in western books and films, African Americans played an integral part in America's expansion during the 19th century.The Black Cowboys is a well-illustrated and beautifully written book

A Book for ALL ages!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Black Cowboys (African American Achievers) (Library Binding)
I'm neither a young adult, or in any grade between four and eight, but this book is one that everyone should read, no matter what your age. Some pictures are grainy, yes, but then again, THEY'RE OLD and they SHOULD be grainy. This is one book you'll want to pick up every now and then and read all in one sitting. Remember the names of the cowboys and read more books on them. They are as much a part of our history as the American Indians. BUY IT!!! Better yet, BUY THREE!!!
