FANTASTIC, SCARCE, VINTAGE, 1979, UNREAD AND NEAR MINT, SOFTBOUND PAPERBACK BOOK TITLED "ELEANOR ROOSEVELT'S NIGGERS", by David J. Williams! - - - Please note: THIS is the first AND the original POLITICALLY INCORRECT title of this very scarce book as originally published in 1976 - - - BUT now, all of sudden-like, possibly due to the August 2023 History Channel TV Special on this Battalion, there are several other recent books that either re-tell or re-write the story of this heroic Black Tank Battalion (such as "Patton's Panthers" by Sasser, and "The Black Panthers" by Dinicolo) - - - BUT this is the ORIGINAL historical and FACT BASED fictionalized account of the gallant service of the EXCLUSIVELY AFRICAN AMERICAN U.S. ARMY 761st TANK BATTALION DURING WORLD WAR II! - - - In the same tradition as the "Tuskeegee Airmen", this famous Black Tank Battalion was championed and promoted by Eleanor Roosevelt, thus they were referred to as noted by the politically incorrect title during WW II! - - - Originally published in 1976, this is a later edition published by Neptune Books in 1979, probably revised to include an update of the President Jimmy Carter Presidential Unit Citation as awarded in 1978!
