From Slavery To Wealth, The Life Of Scott Bond

""From Slavery to Wealth: The Life of Scott Bond: The Rewards of Honesty, Industry, Economy and Perseverance"" is a biography written by Daniel Arthur Rudd in 1917. The book tells the story of Scott Bond, an African American who was born into slavery but went on to become a successful businessman and landowner in the South during the late 19th century. The book covers Bond's early life as a slave, his escape to freedom during the Civil War, and his struggles to build a life for himself and his family in the aftermath of slavery. It also explores the challenges he faced as a black man trying to succeed in a society that was still deeply divided by race and prejudice. Throughout the book, Rudd emphasizes the importance of honesty, industry, economy, and perseverance in Bond's success. He argues that these qualities were essential not only to Bond's personal success but also to the progress of the African American community as a whole. Overall, ""From Slavery to Wealth"" is a powerful testament to the resilience and determination of one man in the face of adversity, and a reminder of the ongoing struggle for racial equality in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
