[RACE]. Ed. Graham Russell Hodges. John H. Hewitt Jr. "Protest and Progress: New York's First Black Episcopal Church Fights Racism (Studies in African American History and Culture)." New York and London: Garland Publishing, Taylor and Francis, 2000. First edition, first printing. English language. Hardcover with dark gray cloth boards stamp white on spine. Nonfiction academic history text in 7 chapters with index, notes, and introduction, as well as numerous black-and-white historical photographic illustrations. 9 1/4 x 6 1/4 inches. 14 oz. xiv, 154 pp. No jacket. Sticker on back board. Residue on fore-edge. Highlighting in one chapter. Good. ISBN: 0815334729. "As both a preeminent scholar of Black Angelican and Episcopalians and a devout parishoner, the late James Hewitt writes an illuminating history of one of the most famous black congregrations in America. From its humble beginnings, St. Philip's originated from classes conducted by Elais Neau and other Angelic clerks for the Society for the Propagations of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. From these classes emerged a higly educated, African-American group comprised of free and enslaved blacks. W. E. B Du Bois hailed it as the foundation for the Talented Tenth in his classic book 'Souls of Black Folk.' After the American Revolution, St. Philip's has since becoem the church of middle-class blacks across New York City. Hewlitt's careful and precise scholarship chronicles over two centuries of of the church's history, which fills a significant lacuna in African-American Religious history.".

Store description

I sell uncommon art catalogs, academic monographs, and prints, as well as rare ephemera such as posters and zines. I ship from Brooklyn, New York. I am an alum of the Rare Book School and the Colorado Antiquarian Book Seminar, as well as Indiana University and the Ohio State University. I started in the trade at the Wexner Center for the Arts bookstore, and I have previously worked for the Columbus Metropolitan Library, the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago's Department of Prints and Drawings, and the Indiana University Art Museum's center for Prints, Drawings, and Photographs. More recently, I was the rare book cataloger at Donald Heald Rare Books, for whom I worked the ABAA's New York International Antiquarian Book Fair.
