Laborers In The Vineyard Of The Lord
The Beginnings of the AME Church in Florida, 1865-1895
By Larry Eugene Rivers and Canter Brown, Jr.
Published by University Press Of Florida. 2001. First Edition. First Printing (with "1" on number line).
Hardcover. Dustjacket. 8vo (9 1/4" X 6 1/4"). 244 pages. Illustrated. Signed.

Written by two eminent historians, Laborers In The Vineyard Of The Lord examines the history of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Florida from the beginning of Reconstruction to the institution of Jim Crow segregation, a period when the AME Church played a crucial role in the religious, cultural, and political lives of black Floridians. The book begins with an overview of slave religion and the first stirrings of African Methodism before 1865 and culminates with the formidable challenges that faced the church by 1895.

This book comes from the estate of Robert and Lorena Jaeb who were a power couple in both the philanthropic and political circles of Tampa, Florida.

It is signed by both Larry E. Rivers and Canter Brown Jr. on Title Page and dated 4/29/01.

Condition
Dustjacket is in Good+ condition with a small tear on rear and some light staining. It has not been price-clipped but does not have a price (as issued). I've placed it in a Brodart protective cover.
Book itself has some bumping to cover corners and light dusting/staining to top page edges, otherwise it is flawless, clean, and tight.
Condition of book is Very Good.

Full refund if book is not as described.
Please add $3.75 for Media Mail (Bookrate) shipping within USA.
Priority Mail available upon request with postage based on buyer's zip code (mailed from 33583).

AB Bookman's Weekly first proposed in 1949 a set of terms that could serve as a standard for the antiquarian book trade. These terms have been widely adopted as industry standards since then:
As New is to be used only when the book is in the same immaculate condition in which it was published. There can be no defects, no missing pages, no library stamps, etc., and the dustjacket (if it was issued with one) must be perfect, without any tears.
Fine approaches the condition of As New, but without being crisp. For the use of the term Fine there must also be no defects, etc., and if the jacket has a small tear, or other defect, or looks worn, this should be noted.
Very Good can describe a used book that does show some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Any defects must be noted.
Good describes the average used and worn book that has all pages or leaves present. Any defects must be noted.
Fair is a worn book that has complete text pages (including those with maps or plates) but may lack endpapers, half-title, etc. (which must be noted). Binding, jacket (if any), etc. may also be worn. All defects must be noted.
Poor describes a book that is sufficiently worn that its only merit is as a Reading Copy because it does have the complete text, which must be legible. Any missing maps or plates should still be noted. This copy may be soiled, scuffed, stained or spotted and may have loose joints, hinges, pages, etc.
