Notes: The authors examine how Princess Anne Academy on the lower Eastern Shore of Maryland developed after 1890 as a state and federally supported land grant school. Like other land grant schools, Princess Anne Academy was neglected by state and federal agencies. This academy was an example of separate education provided for blacks which demonstrated how land grant schools were indeed separate ad unequal.

Notes: A planners' survey evidently prepared for the American Bicentennial, the booklet provides a well-illustrated history of one of Baltimore's most important areas and its people, threatened at the time by an expressway. The threat of the highway has since been removed; unfortunately much of Fells Point's industrial architecture, unique in the city, has disappeared as well.
