Summary:
"This work is not solely a tribute to the creation of Moorland Spingran Research Center nor the politics at Howard University during Kelly Miller's tenure. This work attempts to situate the life of Kelly Miller in three areas: the private, the public, and the polemic." - excerpted from the Preface (p. xii).
