The sons of Allen [electronic resource] / Horace Talbert ; together with a sketch of the rise and progress of Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, Ohio.
Begins with a brief history of Bishop Richard Allen, the slave who bought his own freedom and went on to establish the African Methodist Episcopal Church in 1816. Two essays praise the A.M.E. Church for its role in African American progress and for the itinerant system of the Church. The bulk of the book offers biological sketches of 120 prominent Church members and concludes with a history of Wilberforce University from 1856 through the next half-century.
