In 1955 the schools of the City of Louisville were desegregated. In 1956 when the schools were reopened 25% of the students were African-American. A major city in The Old South desegregated - quietly, without riots. A splendid story. Found in a northern Ohio farmhouse library - 200 years and more of books and paper - they loved, and kept, all their books and paper. We gathered eight pickup truckloads from that library - bringing all of it to you via eBay now.No wear, No looseness, No mustiness, No smoke smell. We do try to describe them correctly - we want you back - hundreds of repeat customers. No names, No other markings, No Bookplates, NOT Remainder-marked. Don't let this one by you - this is a splendid antisegregation history.
