Those few books that addressed the subject at all treated black legislators en masse and offered little or nothing about their individual histories. Early scholars tended to present isolated events of the violence and political deterrents inflicted upon black voters but said very little about how these obstacles affected black lawmakers. Author Merline Pitre has departed from this traditional method and relied upon the untapped original materials found on these black lawmakers. This third edition features a new preface and extended, updated appendixes, ensuring that this study will remain useful to political scientists, sociologists, and historians of Texas political history, Afro-American history, and revisionists of Reconstruction. MERLINE PITRE is the author or editor of numerous books, including Black Women in Texas History, In Struggle against Jim Crow, and Southern Black Women in the Modern Civil Rights Movement, winner of the Liz Carpenter Award for Research in the History of Women.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMERLINE PITRE is the author or editor of numerous books, including \u003ci\u003eBlack Women in Texas History, In Struggle against Jim Crow\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eSouthern Black Women in the Modern Civil Rights Movement, \u003c\/i\u003e winner of the Liz Carpenter Award for Research in the History of Women.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 296\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 8.9 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 09, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48261411111133,"sku":"9781623494827","price":38.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/8tZPEDHJkM9781623494827.webp?v=1785076729","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/through-many-dangers-toils-and-snares-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
