Beschreibung
First edition. Foreword by Eugene Bucchioni of the City University of New York. Square octavo. 73, [3] pp. Heavily illustrated from photographs, drawings, and with musical notation. Pictorial boards. A bump at the crown causing a couple of tiny splits, bottom corners worn through, very good. A children's book with short illustrated entries, likely for younger students. Includes a short glossary, games to play, recipes, and songs. Biographical information on Hines is slim, but an article in the February 1971 issue of *Economic Development* mentions him in reference to an Interracial Council for Business Opportunities loan he received to start New Dimensions in 1967. It describes Hines as a Jamaican playwright who graduated from New York University and taught for several years in New York City. It was after witnessing firsthand the lack of Black History being taught in public school that he founded New Dimensions to provide textbooks and biographies featuring historic Black figures and contemporary issues facing Black Culture. Uncommon. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 545116
