"In His Own Words: The Writings, Speeches, and Letters of George Henry White, 1881-1918" offers a comprehensive view of the career of an African American political pioneer. The first African American to serve in the U.S. Congress in the twentieth century, George Henry White was also a renowned American orator and public servant for nearly four decades.

Editor Benjamin Justesen, author of "George Henry White: An Even Chance in the Race of Life-the first full-length biography of White" (2001)- compiled this exhaustive supplementary collection. Known best for his 1901 "farewell speech" to Congress, White's varied career extended far beyond the U.S. Capitol, including a powerful role as an early civil rights leader. Beginning as a North Carolina lawyer, Republican legislator, and school principal and ending as a Philadelphia banker and assistant city solicitor, he personally touched the lives of thousands with words and deeds. White also set a rare example of selfless racial leadership during a troubled period by founding Whitesboro, the experimental New Jersey colony which still bears his name.

Letters, speeches, and other documents highlight White's eloquent thoughts on key issues of the day, such as:

  • the epidemic of lynching
  • Southern disfranchisement of African American voters
  • the dismissal of African American soldiers after the Brownsville, Texas, incident
  • the most effective political philosophy for African Americans.

"In His Own Words" offers a rare glimpse into the mind of a true American hero, as well as a compact, useful tool for scholars of the post-Reconstruction era of American history.

Great ball but easily broken
Size: Large
I got this ball for my two dogs, one is a 90 pound yellow lab mix and the other 45 pound black lab mix. So far only my bigger dog has played with it and has also busted it. He was playing with it for probably half an hour just chomping down to make it crinkle and crunch. It's quite the loud ball!! I noticed the sound wasn't as loud so I took a peek and noticed my dog basically crushed the inner ball into a much smaller ball. He's still having a good time with it though. It's only a matter of time though that he's going to chew the outer shell because it doesn't make noise like it did.

Dogs go for this ball every time
Size: Large, Size: Large
My Boston's and Rotti love this ball. I had to get two more. It's great for the Boston's because they can grasp it with the way it's made with the softer rubber. They love the crackle sound. It's just the right size and weight for smaller like the Boston Terrier and Rotti. Easy cleaning, rinses right off.

It's a Hit a Our House!
Size: Large
My strong chewer is still ..... Well, going strong! He loves his new crackle ball. He enjoys the new sound, the bounce back feeling in his jaws when chews. Mom is happy that pup hasn't put a dent in the toy yet! Price was more than reasonable too. We give it 5 Paws Up!
