From Slavery to Freedom

by John Hope Franklin

Though not as expansive as Africana, Franklin’s seminal work also covers the African-American and African experience in shaping and defining the larger human experience.  From Slavery to Freedom, which has sold over 3 million copies since its initial publishing in 1947, covers wide-ranging topics including ancient African civilization, African intellectual centers, medicine, literature, music, the slave trade and civil rights.
