Sobre este artículo
Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company. 1970. The personal copy of Rayford W. Logan which has been inscribed and presented by him to the British historian George Shepperson. Soft illustrated card covers. A very good copy, the binding square and firm, the covers rubbed and creased, with a "reserve" sticker to the front panel. The contents, a little toned to the text block edges, are otherwise clean throughout. Inscribed twice on the page listing the authors (facing the title page); to the top in blue ink: "Personal copy of / Rayford W. Logan", and to the bottom in black ink: "Presented to / Professor George A. Shepperson / with appreciation / and admiration / Rayford W. Logan / Washington, D. C. / August 10, 1978". The recipient is George "Sam" Shepperson (1922-2020), British historian, Africanist and William Robertson Professor of Commonwealth and American History at the University of Edinburgh from 1963 until 1986. Rayford Logan was an African American historian and a professor at Howard University. In 1932 President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed Logan to his 'Black Cabinet', an unofficial group which advised the president on public policy. Logan drafted Roosevelt's executive order prohibiting the exclusion of blacks from the military in World War II. In the late 1940s he acted as the chief advisor to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) on international affairs, and later became Director of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH).
