""Alexander Gifford Or Vi'let's Boy: A Story Of Negro Life"" is a novel written by Henry A. Merrill. The book tells the story of Alexander Gifford, a young African American boy who is taken in by a kindly white woman named Vi'let. Vi'let becomes a surrogate mother to Alexander, and the two form a close bond. The novel explores the themes of race, identity, and family, as Alexander struggles to find his place in a society that is deeply divided by racial tensions. Through his experiences, Alexander learns about the challenges and injustices faced by African Americans in the early 20th century, and he begins to understand the importance of standing up for what is right. The novel is a poignant and powerful portrayal of the African American experience, and it remains an important work of literature today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
