A Tribute for the Negro

1848. Being a vindication of the moral, intellectual and religious capabilities of the colored portion of mankind; with particular reference to the African race. Illustrated by numerous biographical sketches, facts, anecdotes, etc. and many superior portraits and engravings. The purpose of this volume, in contradiction to the idea of the Negro being designed only for a servile condition, is to demonstrate that the Sable inhabitants of Africa are capable of occupying a position in society very superior to that which was generally assigned to them at the time this work was originally published.
