It begins with a historical overview that describes the movement by African American authors from slave narratives and antebellum newspapers into fiction writing, the work of early genre writers, such as Pauline Hopkins and Rudolph Fisher, the protest writers of the 1940s and 1950s, and the authors who followed in the 1960s.</p> <p><a href="http://www.frankieybailey.com/books/non-fiction/african-american-mystery-writers-historical-and-thematic-study" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://www.frankieybailey.com/books/non-fiction/african-american-mystery-writers-historical-and-thematic-study#comments Non-Fiction African American Mystery Writers African American historical Mystery Writers Sun, 28 Mar 2010 20:09:01 +0000 admin 4 at http://www.frankieybailey.com
