Chicago: Ross D. Brown, 1943.

Sold

Softcover. First edition. Octavo. 112pp. Illustrated. Frontispiece portrait of the author. Stapled printed orange wrappers. A few penciled notes in text (some possibly racist, or at least antagonistic): "A Words Eye View" has been annotated to "A Black Birds View"; some handwritten notes about the possible mixed-race status of Alexander Hamilton (one laid in reading: "At State Library... Hamilton in Dictionary of American Biography... No mention of any taint in blood as alledged [sic] ... by Ross D. Brown"), other light overall wear, very good or better. Brown was the founder and pastor of "Truth Seeker's Temple" in Chicago. Similar to the works of historian and compiler J.A. Rogers, but seemingly much scarcer.
