Despite a slight bias in favor of Du Bois's philosophical and political ideologies regarding race relations in America, this well-written biography presents an intelligent interpretation of his relationship with his contemporary, Booker T. Washington. A readable text and color, sepia, and black-and-white illustrations chronicle Du Bois's scholarship and activism as he championed education, socialism, and finally Pan-Africanism.
