BOOKER T. WASHINGTON'S MURDER IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE TUSKEGEE SYPHILIS STUDY.

This book traces the last days of the life of Booker T. Washington, Founder of Tuskegee Institute now known as Tuskegee University. He was on vacation in Mobile, Alabama from Sept. 18, 1915 through Oct. 1, 1915 where he relaxed, fished and hunted. On October 17, 1915 he made his last speech to the student body on the importance of teamwork. His last public appearance was in New Haven, CT. on Oct. 25, 1915. A week later while in New York the newspapers reported that he had a nervous breakdown and was ageing rapidly. The hospital record dated November 1, 1915 stated that he had no mental symptoms.
