Notă biografică

Mifflin Wistar Gibbs (1823-1915) was an American-Canadian diplomat, judge and lawyer. As a young man in Philadelphia he was involved in the abolitionist movement. In 1850 Gibbs migrated west during the gold rush, and became a successful businessman in California, and founded Mirror of the Times, one of the first Black owned newspapers in the country. In 1858 Gibbs moved to Victoria, where he prospered as a prominent community leader. In the 1870¿s he returned to the United States, and became the first black man elected as a U.S. judge, and eventually became a the first African American diplomat.

Recenzii

“M. W. Gibbs recalls a life of myriad transformations—from a youth of poverty to success in gold rush California to election as the first black municipal judge in America to service as the American consul to Madagascar. And Gibbs tells it all with verve and candor. It is an autobiography worthy of its subject—and just as much worth reading today as when it was first published in 1902.”—Tom W. Dillard
