The contents of this annotated bibliography, prepared as part of an E.S.E.A. Title III project, are divided into three sections: (1) The role of the Negro in the historical development of the United States; (2) The Negro in family, school, and community life in contemporary America; and, (3) Highlights in African history -- past and present. All titles have been verified with "Books in Print" so that either the publisher or a book jobber should be able to supply them. The listings are up-to-date and had a terminal assembly date of June 15, 1969. The materials have been grouped so that their relation to the elementary curriculum is evident. For each book listed the following information is provided: classification number, title, author, publisher, copyright date, number of pages, illustration status, price, annotation, and assessed reading level.
