An exhaustive study by Rayford Logan and a “groundbreaking work on race and diplomacy ... [The author] visited Haiti twice and was a firsthand witness to the 1934 end of the American occupation. In the 1920s and 1930s his scholarship on Haiti and colonial Africa earned him national recognition not only in the black diaspora—he was awarded Haiti’s Order of Honor and Merit in 1941 for his scholarship and advocacy—but also from influential, predominantly white organizations such as the Foreign Policy Association.” (Kenneth Robert Janken) Logan, an African-American historian and advocate of Pan-Africanism, had a long tenure as a history professor at Howard University. He served on FDR’s “Black Cabinet” and drafted the language for Roosevelt’s executive order prohibiting the exclusion of African Americans from the military during World War II.Our Stock# 3728759 About Us Established in 1995, Ian Brabner, Rare Americana, LLC buys and sells rare and antiquarian books and historical manuscripts published or created in pre-1900 America.
