“This monograph is a valuable addition to the limited number of carefully made studies of negro life. The oversight of data about the investigations and activities of several state governments, of the United States Shipping board and the Department of labor, needs correction in subsequent editions. Constructive suggestions would add to the utility of the study.” G: E. Haynes
