BLACK HISTORY month in Virginia and Alabama

In 2012 McFarland and Company, Inc. published my biography of James Solomon Russell. A former slave, Russell founded Saint Paul's College in Lawrenceville, Virginia. As an Episcopal priest in the newly-formed Diocese of Southern Virginia in the late 1890s and early 1900s, Russell planted 31 churches.

In 2014 Archdeacon Books published my book Alabama Timelines: African American Entrepreneurs. This book is helpful for finding historical black entrepreneurs in the State of Alabama before, during, and after the Civil War.

Both books can be purchased through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Books-a-Million online bookstores.
