I had picked up this book a month or so ago from Half Price Books, a used book seller. It has probably over 100 short writeups about famous black Missourians--some born in state or others that lived here a while. The different categories were Pioneers, Leaders, Performers, Athletes and Other Notables--really just a good introduction to many people that have played a role in MO over time. Only about 2 pages per person so just short quick writeups. Thought this would be a good read during Black History Month and it was.
There are no copies on PBS at this point but not posting it yet either. Keeping as a sort of reference book at this point.
