{"product_id":"pioneer-urbanites-douglas-henry-daniels-9780520073999","title":"Pioneer Urbanites: A Social and Cultural History of Black San Francisco","description":"The black migration to San Francisco and the Bay Area differed from the mass movement of Southern rural blacks and their families into the eastern industrial cities. Those who traveled West, or arrived by ship, were often independent, sophisticated, single men. Many were associated with the transportation boom following the Gold Rush; others traveled as employees of wealthy individuals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDouglas Daniels argues for the importance of going beyond the written record and urban statistics in examining the life of a minority community. He has studied photographs from family albums and interviewed members of old black San Francisco families in his effort to provide the first nuanced picture of the lives of black San Franciscans from the 1860s to the 1940s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Douglas Henry Daniels\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520073991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520073999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.57d","brand":"Douglas Henry Daniels","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44149178695935,"sku":"9780520073999","price":31.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0578e024-6181-4396-b0fd-f5c73cbe2752.jpg?v=1688455254","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/pioneer-urbanites-douglas-henry-daniels-9780520073999","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
