Description
Amsterdam: Mulder Verlag / Emmerich am Rhein, 1957. First Edition. Pictorial cover. Very good. Signed first edition of Die Regenbogen-Kinder [The Rainbow Children] by actress and civil rights activist Josephine Baker.. Octavo, unpaginated, [30 leaves]. Pictorial cloth, decorated with illustrations by Piet Worm. Solid text block, wear to corners and edges of spine. Faint staining along gutter of front endpapers. Illustrations remain vibrant and clean. A very good copy. Lacking the matching dust jacket. Signed "Josie Baker" on the copyright page. Josephine Baker (1906-1975), a dancer and actress, was the first Black woman to appear in a major motion picture (Siren of the Tropics). Baker was a notable member of the Civil Rights Movement who refused to perform for segregated audiences. She was offered a leadership role in the movement by Coretta Scott King in 1968 after the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., but declined to protect her children's safety. Baker and her husband, Jon Bouillon, raised 12 adopted children, which she deemed "The Rainbow Children" due to their varying ethnicities and religions. Her goal was to prove that a diverse group of people "could still be brothers.

Description
[Atlanta?], 1872. 59, [1 blank] pp. Stitched, each page printed in two columns. Lightly foxed, Good plus. Reconstruction Governor of Georgia, a former New Yorker who had served in the Confederate Army, Bullock was defeated in the elections of 1870 and then "fled Georgia accused of every kind of venality" [Foner Reconstruction 605]. This pamphlet is Bullock's defense, rebutting charges of corruption in the issuance of state bonds, illegal subsidies to railroads, sale of pardons, appointing crooks and incompetents to State offices, wrecking the publicly-owned Western & Atlantic Railroad, plundering the penitentiary system, etc., etc. Bullock charges his enemies with seeking to "overthrow not only the reconstructed Government of Georgia, but that of the United States." The pamphlet vividly expresses the chaos of Georgia during Reconstruction. FIRST EDITION. De Renne 733. 113 Eberstadt 218. III DAB 259.
