Summary:This book has been written for young Africans stepping out into life or in their final year in college or training school. Throughout the world, as in Africa, the new generations are facing changed conditions and paths untrodden before. They need not only good friends beside them, but light from the records of their race. To see how one's forefathers met new situations, to discern the qualities which led to success, the mistakes which brought disaster, is singularly worth while. It is evident from the stories that follow that young Africans have a racial heritage of which they may be justly proud. For every story here told, ten more could be written, equally full of human interest, equally rich in suggestion for life to-day.
