1901réf. ST19567-099London: MacMillan and Co. Limited 1901. Fourth Edition. 220 x 140 mm. 8 3/4 x 5 1/2". viii 510 pp. Very pleasing deep brown pebble-grained morocco by Bumpus signed on the front turn-in covers ruled in gilt and black with scrolling fleuron cornerpieces raised bands spine with compartments outlined in black and gilt gilt-ruled turn-ins all edges gilt. Frontispiece portrait of Cromwell after the painting by Samuel Cooper. Spine very slightly sunned the frontispiece and half title with minor foxing but an extremely pleasing copy the text very clean and fresh and the attractive binding lustrous and showing virtually no signs of use. First published in 1900 this is an important biography of one of the most controversial of English leaders written by the universally respected British Liberal statesman writer and newspaper editor John Morley 1838-1923. Composed after very considerable research and with great care Morley's work expands upon the biographies of C. H. Firth and Samuel Rawson Gardiner but with a somewhat more disparaging lens. It is generally sympathetic but critics of the account suggest that Morley's own political concerns at a vexing time in British politics seem to color his portrait of Cromwell in a negative way that is unwarranted. The book was first published in October of 1900 and this the fourth edition was released in January of the following year. Our copy is a particularly attractive one in an elegant yet restrained binding by the distinguished Bumpus bindery. MacMillan and Co., Limited unknown books

Washington: American Negro Academy 1914. Octavo original gilt-lettered green cloth. $3200.First edition of Cromwell's paramount African American history that ""broke fresh ground"" in its defining biographies of leaders such as Frederick Douglass and Phillis Wheatley a major biography of Reconstruction congressman Robert B. Elliot who crafted a core argument against the 1873 decision in the Slaughter-House Cases along with accounts of the lives and influence of Henry Highland Garnet Denmark Vesey Nat Turner and many more. This important association copy stands within that tradition in its owner signature of Cromwell's granddaughter historian and scholar Dr. Adelaide Cromwell co-founder of the African Studies program at Boston University.Born enslaved in 1846 Cromwell became a teacher before enrolling in Howard University's law school. Admitted to the bar in 1874 in 1876 he founded the newspaper People's Advocate and became a voice for Black education in all-Black schools founding the Bethel Literary and Historical Association and playing a vital role in establishing the American Negro Academy. Cromwell's early writings and leadership were quickly seen as crucial and in 1887 he was profiled in Simmons' Men of Mark alongside Frederick Douglass and Crispus Attucks. Simmons asserted: ""If you ask me for the best English scholar in the United States I would unhesitatingly refer you to John Wesley Cromwell"" Smithsonian. Cromwell's Negro in American History his ""first full-length monograph"" documents the ""history of African Americans from the slave trade through Reconstruction and its aftermath"" ANB. Early recognized as a ""very important work"" it features lengthy biographies of Phillis Wheatley Sojourner Truth Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington as well as figures such as Reconstruction attorney Robert B. Elliott ""who helped draft legislation to fight the KKK in the South"" Smithsonian. Negro in American History is especially significant in its attention to slave revolts as ""a constant menace to the safety and security of slavery."" Cromwell saw Denmark Vesey and Nat Turner as folk heroes and ""maintained that before the American Revolution along approximately 25 insurrections had occurred."" The work of Black historians such as Cromwell ""broke fresh ground by focusing on the slaves' responses to captivity"" and by evincing pride for a Black past that ""laid the foundation for Black protest"": raising questions and ""themes that did not become popular among historians until the 1960s"" Smith Different View of Slavery 303-4. In his life and writings Cromwell combined ""advocacy for the collective uplift of African Americans with a belief in educational advancement and intellectual achievement. His historical work placed him at the nexus of the pre-professional and professional milieus in African American scholarship"" ANB. First edition first printing. With frontispiece and eleven full-page illustrations. This distinctive association copy possesses the owner signature of Adelaide M. Cromwell the granddaughter of its author John Wesley Cromwell and the niece of Dr. Otelia Cromwell the first African American woman to earn a doctorate from Yale.

Atlanta: Atlanta University Press 1903. Octavo original printed gray self-wrappers respined; pp. 212. $2800.First edition of a rare association copy of Du Bois' groundbreaking work on the Black Church with owner signature of Adelaide M. Cromwell influential scholar and granddaughter of renowned 19th-century Black historian John Wesley Cromwell a peer of Du Bois this 1903 work published the same year as his famed ""Talented Tenth"" manifesto key in affirming Du Bois' role in moving ""the Atlantic University Studies to the frontier of social science research virtually single-handedly.""The year Du Bois arrived in Atlanta in 1897 to begin his tenure at Atlanta University he became director of the annual series of conferences and primary editor of the accompanying publications. Particularly ""in both Negro Church 1903 and Negro Family 1908É Du Bois would push the Atlantic University Studies to the frontier of American social science research virtually single-handedly"" Levering Lewis W.E.B. Du Bois 160. There and in his own early writings ""Du Bois created sociological and historical works of lasting significanceÉ that set wholly new standards for the sociological study of Black Americans"" New York Times. In Atlanta already ""one of the 20th century's intellectual heavyweights"" he stood in ""the vanguard of social science scholarship in America"" but remained ignored by the academy as the critically underfunded Atlanta University was routinely bypassed by white philanthropists Levering Lewis 713 162.It was in Atlanta that Du Bois created ""the first American school of sociology"" Wright First American School of Sociology 80. Yet in 1910 when he realized ""his presence on the faculty of Atlanta University negatively affected the school's philanthropic outreach effortsÉ he chose to resign from the faculty."" Du Bois increasingly ""saw that 'the cure wasn't simply telling people the truth it was inducing them to act on the truth.' It was not enough to determine truth scientifically; it had to be implemented politically."" This became a cornerstone of his often tumultuous always consequential life and career. Nearly five decades after leaving Atlanta the news of his death across the world in Ghana caused the 250000 Americans gathered at the 1963 March on Washington to grow suddenly silentÑa ""moment almost cinematic in its poignancy""Ñas Roy Wilkins declared: ""his was the voice calling you to gather today in this cause"" Levering Lewis 162 2.
