Young Jim; the early years of James Weldon Johnson by Ellen Tarry.
The story of Mr. Johnson's life (fact presented in fiction form) begins in Jacksonville, Florida, moves to Atlanta, Georgia where his formal education was completed at university, and leads finally to recounting his achievements in the NAACP and elsewhere.
"The author spent 25 years reading, listening and talking about James W. Johnson. She interviewed many people close to him and discovered new material which no one else had access. This included his wife, Grace Nail Johnson, and others."Collection
