       African-American customers" -- front cover 
500    "The Negro motorist green book, first published in 1936 
       under the title The Negro motorist Green Book, was a 
       product of the rising African-American middle class having
       the finances and vehicle for travel but facing a world 
       where social and legal restrictions barred them from many 
       accommodations"--History. 
520    "In the segregated US of the mid-twentieth century, 
       African-American travelers could have a hard time finding 
       towns where they were legally allowed to stay at night and
       hotels, restaurants, and service stations willing to serve
       them. In 1936, Victor Hugo Green published the first 
       annual volume of The Negro Motorist Green Book, later 
       renamed The Negro Travelers' Green Book. This facsimile of
       the 1954 edition brings you all the listings, travelogues,
       and advertisements aimed at the Black travelers trying to 
       find their way across a country where they were so rarely 
       welcome." -- Publisher's description
