PRICE, $1.00 PER COPY.

The following are some of the comments of the Press:—

"This book may well be termed the great inside view of the South. It runs back for fifty years, and gives the state of society in the olden time. For wit and humor it has had no equal. Dr. Brown faces the whole problem of the negroes' past and future in a manly, sensible, incisive way."—Daily Advertiser, Boston.

"The work is full of spicy incidents and anecdotes."—The Commonwealth, Boston.

"The book is very entertaining and suggestive, and will be read with pleasure and profit."—Zion's Herald, Boston.

"Dr. Brown has given us an interesting book."—The Journal, Boston.

"A racy book, brim full of instruction, wit, and humor, and will be read with delight."—Daily Transcript, Boston.

"Dr. Brown has written a very interesting and instructive volume upon the South and its people at the present time. The book is illustrated with an engraving of the author, which does no justice at all to the handsome features of one of the most able of the anti-slavery orators of the past generation."—Sunday Herald, Boston.

"The most graphic and racy work yet written on the South and its people."—New York Times.

"Dr. Brown gives an interesting picture of the South, discusses the Negro question with sound sense and logical force, and clearly points out to the proscribed colored man the way to rise and rank as a man among men. We commend the book to our readers."—The National Monitor, Brooklyn, N. Y.

"The style is easy and pleasing. The portrayal is wonderful. Throughout the work there is a vein of humor running which is a characteristic of the author, and creative of side-splitting laughter in its effect. Be sure and get the book."—Virginia Star, Richmond, Va.

"'My Southern Home,' is a true and faithful picture of Southern Whites and Blacks. Read the book by all means."—Herald and Pilot, Nashville, Tenn.

"Dr. Brown has written an interesting book."—Fred Douglass.
