Publisher's Synopsis

""From Slave to College President: Being the Life Story of Booker T. Washington"" is a biographical book written by G. Holden Pike in 1902. The book tells the inspiring story of Booker T. Washington, who was born into slavery and rose to become one of the most influential African American leaders of his time. The book covers Washington's early years as a slave, his education, and his rise to prominence as a teacher and founder of the Tuskegee Institute. It also explores his efforts to improve the lives of African Americans through education and economic empowerment, as well as his relationships with other prominent figures of the time, such as President Theodore Roosevelt. The book provides a fascinating insight into the life of one of America's most important historical figures and sheds light on the struggles and triumphs of the African American community during this period of American history.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
