Authors'
Book
Signing
The Authors' Book Signing will be held during our 93rd Annual Convention in
Birmingham, Alabama on
Thursday, October 2nd from 6:00pm - 8:00pm in
the Sheraton Ballroom Prefunction
.  ASALH will host a number of new and
noted authors and scholars who will be selling and signing their works.

The Authors' Book Signing is a wonderful opportunity for authors to gain exposure
and to present their work to a large audience of convention attendees.  If you are
interested in becoming a part of this event, please fill out and submit the
registration form below.

Copies of
Carter G. Woodson's Appeal will be available at the
Authors' Book signing for those who make a tax-deductible donation of
$250 or more to ASALH.  Lost for over eighty years, this stinging critique
of white racism and defense of the black race was undoubtedly too
caustic for white society to publish.  But now you can own a leather-bound,
numbered, signed, and authenticated copy for yourself!  Signed by the
editor, Dr. Daryl Michael Scott, this special edition will be a treasured
addition to any library and a family keepsake for generations.  To make
your donation, please contact ASALH at 202-865-0053.
