About This Item
Chicago: Rand McNally & Company [1968], 1968. First edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. Slim 8vo. [8], ix, [3] 113, [3] pp. Black cloth with silver lettering on the front board and spine. Part of the American Politics Research Series. Here Keech studies the social conditions of Black American life in two southern cities, and how the right to vote has improved or left unchanged the quality of life for Black Americans. Keech breaks down the methods he uses to conduct his study, and analyzes Black voter turnout across the South. He examines if Black voters have significantly influenced the public sector and private sector of the United States. Keech ultimately finds that the effects of Jim Crow and institutionalized slavery are so great that it will take more than the ability to vote to equalize the living conditions of Black and White Americans. A Near Fine book with two tiny damp marks to the textblock; dust jacket is Very Good showing significant fading to the front and spine panel, with some edge wear and two tiny dampstains.
