A great reference!

FAMOUS BLACK QUOTATIONS is a great resource to just about anyone, whether they are a student doing research, a presenter seeking to add some historical content or anyone looking for additional knowledge! It includes quotations from well-known persons such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Sojourner Truth, but it also provides quotes from lesser-known persons as well. These topics include love, struggle, self-reliance and making discoveries, just to name a few! One of my personal quotations hails from August Wilson. It reads, "All you need in the world is love and laughter. That's all anybody needs. To have love in one hand and laughter in the other." When one reflects on this quote, its truth seems to jump off the pages!Reviewed by Nedine of The RAWSISTAZ ReviewersComplete review can be found on our website...

A comprehensive collection of famous quotations

I am a writer, and this book has saved me on many an occasion. The quotations included cover a broad spectrum of categories- struggle, identity, self-reliance, challenge, love, etc.- and eras. Handy size makes it ideal for carrying. The only thing I don't like is that the quotations are accompanied by a name only. While it is easy to identify names like Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X, others are more obscure and because I am not entirely familiar with African-American history, it leads me to wonder who some of these people are. Otherwise, a great reference tool and kudos to Ms. Bell for putting together such a handy book!
