After convincing the faint of heart of the absolute need to incorporate African American newspaper research into their overall research strategy, he then demystifies the process of locating African American newspapers, before providing researchers with a plethora of tips and strategies on how to track down those vital social columns--packed full of invaluable genealogical information on your ancestors!"--P.
