There is enough blame for everyone, but this book is not on that theme. With a minimum of preparation, against all but insuperable odds, these women have borne the major burden on pulling up the Negro population by its bootstraps. They have been spirited and independent, as well as self-sacrificing. They deserve a place alongside the women who pioneered the West with their husbands, for these women have pioneered another frontier - one fraught with no less danger than the West, against odds no less formidable, and, it is hoped, with equal, if delayed, success. Copyright date 1966 by Prentice-Hall.
