Recenzii

Provides an excellent overview of African American, Asian American, Hispanic American, and Native American political involvment. . . . Especially valuable for general readers and undergraduates, including technical program students.
[N]o other reference source provides as comprehensive coverage . . . of the political history of these four minority groups within a single reference work. . . . This work is highly recommended for public, high school, college, and university libraries.
[T]he information is authoritative, current, and informative. The set constitutes a good one-stop place for students doing research on these four groups and deserves purchase for its usefulness.
This set is a welcome addition to the reference literature because it addresses important topics that are generally neglected. . . . For academic libraries.
This work serves as an excellent source for students and general researchers looking for useful, reliable, and readily available material on the political history and influence of the four largest racial ethnic groups in the United States.
Only one-stop resource available that focuses exclusively on the expanding role of minorities in the U.S. politics.
