Such rarity understates the book's importance. Thompson's major book and her life are significant for the histories of New Jersey, African Americans, local and national, women's and education history. Drawing upon Wright's work, existing scholarship, and new archival research, this new landmark scholarly edition, which includes an all-new biography of this pioneering scholar, underscores the continued relevance of Marion Thompson Wright.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents\u003cbr\u003e Epigram\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e List of Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e The Education of Negroes in New Jersey\u003cbr\u003e Articles:\u003cbr\u003e Text of \"New Jersey Laws and the Negro\" The Journal of Negro History, 28: 2 (April 1943), 156-199\u003cbr\u003e Text of \"Negro Suffrage in New Jersey, 1776-1875,\" The Journal of Negro History, Vol. 33, No. 2 (April 1948), 168-223.\u003cbr\u003e Text of \"Racial Integration in the Public Schools of New Jersey,\" The Journal of Negro Education, 23: 3, Next Steps in Racial Desegregation in Education (Summer, 1954).2882-289.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReviews and Notes\u003cbr\u003e \"Are Colonials People?\" Color and Democracy by William E.
