Excerpt from Who's Who Among North Carolina Negro Baptists: With a Brief History of Negro Baptist Organizations, With Many PhotographsThe collaborating editors are combining with the work of the present generation the heroic achievements of those rugged pioneers of the faith who before and immediately after the Civil War founded and nourished the Baptist cause in its infancy among the Negro people of North Carolina. This fact adds much to the value of this book, because it places in the hands of the Baptist a much-needed record of the work of the fathers - many of whom have been forgotten or'were never heard of by the younger mem bers of our denomination.Another fact which makes this book of vital im portance, is that it contains a short history of the various Baptist State organizations, District Associations, Sunday Schools, B. T. U. Conventions, and women's organizations. This gives the reader information concerning the founding and development of these bodies, so that under one cover the reader may have a brief history of the beginning and progress of the Negro Baptists of North Carolina and short sketches of some of the lives of the men and women who are the leaders of this great work.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
