Too Heavy a Load: Black Women in Defense of Themselves, 1894-1994

Deborah White's book is intended for those interested in the development of the role NACW in a hundred year span. More specifically for those studying the liberation of women or African Americans in this time period. White is a teacher by profession and that comes though in the book. It was written more to educate, not to entertain. I read it for a class and I enjoyed it.

Very well written. Many revealed facts. Enjoyed the read.

Assisted me on my Thesis for Grad School on African American Women. Very good read.

Disappointed at the misleading title of "collectible". This was advertised as a first edition when in reality it is a first edition of the 1991 print which is by no means a COLLECTIBLE. Although the book is in great condition it was supposed to be a gift for someone and I am very disappointed that it is a book that I could have just purchased at a book store locally.

Good Price, speedy delivery!

As advertised. Good read.
