VALUABLE AFRICAN-AMERICAN HISTORY,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Buxton: A Black Utopia in the Heartland, An Expanded Edition (Bur Oak Book) (Paperback)
As a history buff, I find this book to be a very valuable tool in teaching others about African-American history, especially in the state of Iowa, which during slavery, was home to a number of underground railroad stations that helped slaves to escape bondage. The story of Buxton, Iowa is a highly valued chronicle revealing much about black life in Iowa in the early twentieth century, especially with Iowa being looked upon as one of the often ignored, "fly-over" states by so many who are ignorant of the state's rich history.
