The Red Book of Houston (1915) is a vital historical directory documenting the social, professional, religious, and industrial life of Houston’s Black community roughly 50 years post-emancipation. It provides names, addresses, and occupations for approximately 900 individuals, serving as a key resource for studying early 20th-century African American success in the South.
