Booker T. Washington Builder of a Civilization

---

IN THE passing of a character so unique as Dr. Booker T. Washington, many of us, his friends, were anxious that his biography should be written by those best
qualified to do so. It is therefore a source of gratification to us of his own race to have an account of Dr. Washington's career set forth in a form at once accurate
and readable, such as will inspire unborn generations of Negroes and others to love and appreciate all mankind of whatever race or color. It is especially
gratifying that this biography has been prepared by the two people in all America best fitted, by antecedents and by intimate acquaintance and association
with Dr. Washington, to undertake it. Mr. Lyman Beecher Stowe is the grandson of Harriet Beecher Stowe, whose "Uncle Tom's Cabin" had a very direct
influence on the abolition of slavery, and Mr. Emmett J. Scott was Dr..Washington's loyal and trusted secretary for eighteen years.
