Editorial Reviews
Review
The author of this scholarly, valuable book has plowed new ground. No other source describes the black press of the pre-Civil War era in such depth, and with such thoroughness and candor.Choice

The Early Black Press is recommended for all academic libraries with any interests in Black History. Indexed, and with brief appendixes listing extant antebellum Black newspapers.A.L.B.R.

. . . Hutton has made a substantial contribution to what is known about the black press. This is a book that will be used heavily by other historians and should encourage further revision and research in the area.Journalism History

Hutton's book is an excellent study of the importance of the black press to the antebellum free black community.The Journal of American History

Hutton's study is invaluable...ESQ

Review
"This is an important, scholarly study that brings well-researched new findings and revisionist perspectives to bear upon the antebellum black press bourgeoisie." - Patricia Morton Trent University, Canada
