Booker T. Washington: Builder Of A Civilization is a biography of the influential African-American educator, author, and leader, Booker T. Washington. Written by Emmett Jay Scott and first published in 1916, the book traces Washington's life and career, from his childhood as a slave in Virginia to his rise as a prominent figure in American society. The author explores Washington's philosophy of education and his belief in the importance of vocational training and practical skills for African Americans. The book also delves into Washington's role in founding and developing the Tuskegee Institute, a historically black college in Alabama, and his efforts to promote economic self-sufficiency and racial harmony in the United States. Through extensive research and interviews with Washington's colleagues and contemporaries, Scott provides a detailed portrait of a man whose legacy continues to influence American history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
