A country of strangers : blacks and whites in America
Rare Books
A Country of Strangers is a magnificent exploration of the psychological landscape where blacks and whites meet. To tell the story in human rather than abstract terms, the Pulitzer Prize-winning writer David K. Shipler bypasses both extremists and celebrities and takes us among ordinary Americans as they encounter one another across racial lines. We learn how blacks and whites see each other, how they interpret each other's behavior, and how certain damaging images and assumptions seep into the actions of even the most unbiased. We penetrate into dimensions of stereotyping and discrimination that are usually invisible, and discover the unseen prejudices and privileges of white Americans, and what black Americans make of them.

English houses
Visual Materials
Architect: Unidentified Description: Various English style homes with thatched and shingle roofs [England?]. No copy prints for positive plates. These photographs were probably taken during Clarke's trip to England for the Los Angeles Pressed Brick Company [c. 1923-25]. His work, Minor English domestic architecture: being a collection of plates from photographs made by Wm. M. Clarke of the cottages and lesser domestic work of the English country-side, in three volumes, was published c. 1923-25. Even though none of these photographs are in that work, they are very similar in content and composition.
