Some of the most interesting people and events of the past often get bypassed in a classroom. This includes a large number of African-Americans who helped build this country. Black History: More Than Just A Month pays tribute to these forgotten individuals and their accomplishments. Some of the people included are war heroes, inventors, celebrities, athletes, etc. This book is a great supplement to any history class.

Mike Henry has been an educator for over 31 years. He has worked with students from all levels, elementary to college. (A portion of the book sales will be donated to the United Negro College Fund.)
