Moses "I stand before you this afternoon as a proud black man, honored to be a black man, who would be nothing else in God's creation but a black man."— Marcus Garvey, 1928 This landmark book, with more than 89,000 copies sold, is now available with an updated cover design. "Those who are interested in the revolutionary aspects of the twentieth century in America should not miss Cronon's book. It makes exciting reading."—The Nation "A very readable, factual, and well-documented biography of Marcus Garvey."—George Schuyler, The Crisis, NAACP "In a short, swiftly moving, penetrating biography, Mr. Cronon has made the first real attempt to narrate the Garvey story. From the Jamaican's traumatic race experiences on the West Indian island to dizzy success and inglorious failure on the mainland, the major outlines are here etched with sympathy, understanding and insight."—Leslie H. Fishel, Jr., Mississippi Valley Historical Review (now the Journal of American History) "Good reading for all serious history students."—Jet "A vivid, detailed, and sound portrait
of a man and his dreams." E. David Cronon is professor emeritus of history and dean emeritus of the College of Letters and Sciences at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He is the author of numerous books and articles on twentieth-century American history, including Labor and the New Deal. For more information contact
