About This Book
This stunning book consists of portraits — in pictures and words — of twenty outstanding African-Americans. These inspiring individuals range from historical to contemporary figures, such as dancer Judith Jamison, Supreme Court justice Thurgood Marshall, and boxer Joe Louis. Pitcairn's beautifully rendered sepia-toned portraits make each subject jump from the page.Order From Scholastic
