"Bill Katz is at it again. He has done for New York what he did for the American West. We hail him for his accomplishments yesterday and today. I cannot wait to greet him in person. Meanwhile, across the miles, I salute him and Black Legacy." -- Prof. John Hope Franklin
"Bill Katz is one of the few members outside of our community who has made a significant, lasting contribution to it. Black Legacy is a good, clear layman's book on African Americans in New York." -- Prof. John Henrik Clarke
"Brings little-known facts to an audience that deserves to better learn the reality of its past ... [and] much information new to most readers. A fascinating account for the reader to pursue [and] includes many archival photographs. There are few books intended for young people that take this detailed a look at history. -- Voice of Youth Advocates
"This is an exhaustive history of African Americans in New York.... Katz's prose is gracefully accessible and devoid of self-conscious frills." -- The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
... Katz has blended his longtime love of history with impressive research and a family collection of archival prints and photos. The result is an accessible and engaging record of the African presence in New York from the early 1600s.... Black Legacy presents a picture of black (and white) life far different from that of more traditional history books. Age 12 and older. -- The New York Times Book Review, Rosemary L. Bray
