- W2094843313 abstract "For African American historians of the nineteenth and first half of the twentieth century, the goal of writing history was as evident as the stakes were great. Amateur, and later professional, historians dedicated themselves to the proposition of writing African American history into mainstream American history, to instilling pride in the African American community and its roots, and to correcting popular misrepresentations while also addressing the issues and problems specific to their time and place. It was most emphatically history with an agenda. The role played by African American historians, whether amateur or professional, in the historiography of the field has been well charted in works such as August Meier and Elliott Rudwick's Black History and the Historical Profession, 1915-1980 (1986). * Part of the story remains largely untold, however, since little research has been undertaken by scholars from the perspective of book history.2 How did these historians find publishers for their works? What type of publishing houses issued them? How were they promoted and received, and what was their readership and influence on the field of American history? Most specifically, how does the publishing history of such works help account for their impact or lack thereof on the historiography of a given period? In this article, I offer a case study of one particular work by W. E. B. Du Bois, a seminal figure in African American studies best known of course for his 1903 essay collection, The Souls of Black Folk. Yet his monumental Black Reconstruction, published in 1935 by the important New York commercial firm of Harcourt, Brace, redefined the terms by which the history of Reconstruction was analyzed, a redefinition that appeared at a time when mainstream historians presented a very different picture of the post-Civil War period. I propose to begin with a brief reminder of the historiographical debate over Reconstruction. I will then look at the type of publishing houses" @default.
