- Summary:
- "Although several entrepreneurs established newspapers for Baltimore's large anti-bellum free African American community ... no issues have survived. ... Founded in 1837, the Baltimore Sun published numerous articles characterizing local, national and international events relating to and impacting people of color. Beginning with the Reconstruction year of 1870, Mrs. Pagan has performed the yeoman's task of scouring the newspaper for all such accounts and summarizing their contents through 1927."-- Back cover
