Footprints
Born in 1948, the son of an international oilman, David Davenport spent his childhood living in a remote jungle encampment on the island of Sumatra. This was a land of man-eating tigers and poisonous snakes. But it was also the site of Southeast Asia's biggest oil discovery ever, one that had, in fact, been the target of Japanese invaders during World War II. Later, the family would relocate to North Africa, where other major oil discoveries were being made. While living in Libya, David would spend two years shuttling back and forth to school in Austria. Then, it was on to college in the United States. It was the turbulent 1960s, the time of Vietnam and the American civil rights movement. It was also a time for acting up on college campuses, and David soon found himself on the wrong side of the law. Footprints: An Autobiography details how, with the help of a wonderful wife, he recovered from his mistakes and went on to be a successful stock trader at three different major Wall Street firms. His successful approach to investing is clearly explained to anyone who would care to follow in his Footprints.

American Data from the Records of the High Court of the Admiralty of Scotland, 1675-1800
Margaret Motes has combed through a microfilm copy of the 1850 census manuscript for the state of South Carolina in order to unearth every reference to a free black or mulatto that can be found there. The end result of her efforts is the new book, Free Blacks and Mulattos in South Carolina 1850 Census, an alphabetically arranged listing of 8,160 free blacks and mulattos between the ages of one month and 112 years of age. The data for free persons of color in South Carolina in 1850, which spans twenty-nine different counties, records the following for each individual named in the census: name, age, sex, occupation, color, place of birth, household and dwelling number, and county.
Scots in the American West, 1783-1883
Thework at hand is an alphabetical listing of all free African-American heads of household listed in the five U.S. censuses for the State of New York taken between 1790 and 1830. Since it was during this 40-year period that the New York legislature passed a series of statutes resulting in the gradual emancipation of the state's slave population, the scope of this work documents the emergence of a completely free black population by 1830. In all, there are 15,000 references to freedmen, many of whom appear in more than one census.
