From Booklist:
Despite personal tragedies and a tumultuous career, Du Bois is recognized as a true champion of his people. Whiting shows Du Bois as one never afraid to speak his mind and stand up for his beliefs, even when they were at odds with those of major figures such as Booker T. Washington. The author openly discusses Du Bois’ political and ideological struggles, which concluded with his move to Ghana and admittance into the Communist Party. The book, part of the Transcending Race in America: Biographies of Biracial Achievers series, provides solid information about Du Bois. However, the book’s layout disrupts the flow; fact boxes, headings, and quotations are too frequently interspersed and leave the reader searching for the continuation of the text. Includes two time lines: one of his life, the other of his accomplishments; a glossary; other sources; an index; and picture credits. Grades 5-8. --J. B. Petty
