Free at Last by E. E. Cleveland is an inspiring celebration of Black achievement and spiritual freedom at the height of the Civil Rights era. Written by the renowned minister and evangelist, this 1970 first edition traces the journey from slavery and segregation toward dignity, opportunity, and faith-filled hope.

The book opens with a striking painted portrait of Cleveland and a vivid gallery of notable African American figures, including Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Thurgood Marshall, Whitney Young, and many others. Throughout the volume, richly colored illustrations and accessible text highlight the courage, leadership, and spiritual resilience that shaped Black history in America.

Issued by the Review and Herald Publishing Association, this copy reflects both the religious and cultural commitment to justice within the African American community and the broader Adventist tradition. It is equally at home in collections of Black history, civil rights, religious studies, and vintage illustrated books.

This first edition example presents beautifully on the shelf and offers a powerful visual and narrative record of a people’s long journey to be, at last, “free.”
