Dorr and published in 1858. The book tells the story of James P. Beckwourth, a mixed-race man who was born into slavery in Virginia but later became a fur trader and explorer in the American West. In 1854, Beckwourth embarked on a journey around the world, visiting places such as England, France, Egypt, India, and China. Dorr's book is based on Beckwourth's own accounts of his travels, and provides a unique perspective on the world in the mid-19th century from the viewpoint of a person of color. The book describes Beckwourth's encounters with different cultures, religions, and customs, as well as his observations on the political and social issues of the time. A Colored Man Round The World is an important historical document that sheds light on the experiences of people of color during a time of great social and political upheaval. It is also a fascinating travelogue that takes readers on a journey across the globe, offering insights into the diversity and complexity of the world in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
