(EDUCATION.) Mayo, Rev. A. D. Southern Women in the Recent Educational Movement in the South.

8vo, original lettered wrappers, slightly darkened. Bureau of Education, Circular of Information No. 1, 1892. Washington, 1892

  • Notes: first edition. Reprinted numerous times, this is a cornerstone work on education in the South following the Civil War. The second section is entirely devoted to the education of the Negro. Amory Dwight Mayo (1803-1897) lived in the South following the War and was a strong advocate of full education for the Negro. The Library of Congress site (Daniel P. Murray) gives Mayo's race as African-American, but in fact he was white.
