Description
The Negro Motorist Green-Book 1940 Facsimile Edition Published in 1940, this facsimile edition of Victor H. Green's groundbreaking guide provides a unique glimpse into the experiences of African-American travelers in the United States during the mid-20th century. The book contains listings, articles, and advertisements aimed at Black travelers seeking accommodations and services in a country where they were often unwelcome. The Negro Motorist Green-Book was first published in 1936, but this 1940 edition offers a valuable snapshot of the era's segregation and racism. The book's contents provide a fascinating insight into the challenges faced by African-American travelers, and the ways in which they navigated a country that was often hostile to their presence. This facsimile edition is a rare and important historical document, offering a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in American history.
