Beschreibung:
D. Antonio Cantu has been an educator for over 10 years, and is a member of the National Council for History Education. C. Roger Lambert is a member of the Arkansas Historical Society, and has been a university history professor for nearly four decades.
Containing some of the most fertile soil in the world, the Arkansas Delta is predominantly an agricultural region. In the early 19th century, however, while the land remained extremely rich, the Delta's inhabitants were suffering from severe poverty. Showcased here in over 200 vintage images with corresponding commentary are the historic efforts in the education of the Delta for the past 150 years, documenting the region's rise in national education standards.
