Book Description
Excerpt from The Southland of North America: Rambles and Observations in Central America During the Year 1912 To equip a modest volume of travel sketches with a preface is, perhaps, a sin against proportion. "But a preface is more than an author can resist, for it is the reward of his labors. When the foundation stone is laid, the architect appears with his plans, and struts for an hour before the public eye. So with the writer of this preface; he may have never a word to say, but he must show himself for a moment in the portico, hat in hand, and with an urbane demeanor." Such is the quaint prefatory paragraph to Stevenson's delightful Inland Voyage. For this little book of voyages, which are both inland and maritime, there is small need of more that a formal bow to the public, made with the fond hope that there actually may be found an audience to which to make greeting.

Book Description
In 1864 Alida and Calvin Clark, two abolitionist members of the Religious Society of Friends from Indiana, went on a mission trip to Helena, Arkansas. The Clarks had come to render temporary relief to displaced war orphans but instead found a lifelong calling. During their time in Arkansas, they started the school that became Southland College, which was the first institution of higher education for blacks west of the Mississippi, and they set up the first predominately black monthly meeting of the Religious Society of Friends in North America. Their progressive racial vision was continued by a succession of midwestern Quakers willing to endure the primitive conditions and social isolation of their work and to overcome the persistent challenges of economic adversity, social strife, and natural disaster. Southland’s survival through six difficult and sometimes dangerous decades reflects both the continuing missionary zeal of the Clarks and their successors as well as the dedication of the black Arkansans who sought dignity and hope at a time when these were rare commodities for African Americans in Arkansas.
