Product Review
Contested Terrain is a much-needed and profoundly enriching addendum to current research on African American migration. Here, indeed, are stories that illumine with amazing cando important human issues that generations of scholars have typically neglected, misunderstood, or simply overlooked. Quickly, this book will become indispensable history.
–David C. Dennard, Institute for Historical and Cultural Research
Contested Terrain is a richly textured and illuminating study of Black migration through the lens of race, class, and gender. Bunch-Lyons' admirably reveals the interplay between social conditions and interior desire that propelled so many African American women's migration to Cincinnati. This is an important contribution to the burgeoning scholarship in migration studies.

In a slowly growing area-the study of black women migrants to American cities, Beverly Bunch-Lyons' Contested Terrain is extremely timely. Bunch-Lyons' splendid work adds richly to an area of study that still has less than six titles.

Product Description
This in-depth study focuses on black women migrants to the North and in doing so looks at the interaction of race, class, regionalism, and gender during the early years of the 20th century. This is a rare look at women migrants that provides both a cultural history of Cincinnati and the impact African-American women had on this community.
