This is interesting and sad at the same time. It helps me with my history and knowledge of certain times. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I found some of the places in my area. History is alive. *by S***C on November 23, 2025* I found this book very interesting. With all the BS I learned in high school history class, it’s a pleasure to find information that is historically accurate. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An inconvenient FACT of history *by T***H on January 16, 2017* On the one hand I feel like a primal scream of outrage and want to give this ZERO stars because it just never should have existed at all. On the other hand, it is such a fine example of resilience, of finding a way to make things work in an impossible world, that I want to give it TEN stars. Let's compromise at FIVE stars. It's rare to include photos with a book review. I want to make two points with these pics. 1. The Table of Contents shows just how slim this book really is. A mere 48 pages cover the information available for 48 states. That is not actually one page per state. Sometimes it covers two and a half states on a single page. New York City gets more ink than anywhere else. 2. There is a nice article in the middle of this slim volume that describes a trip by Greyhound bus. The second photo shows the first two pages of this article. Each reader may have a different impression or take-away so I leave it to you to read it yourself. In the 1940 described by this Green Book, the Great Depression had waned enough so people might travel because they needed to or wanted to travel. World War II had not yet absorbed the country. Jim Crow was a solid reality, and more widespread than I realized years ago. For perspective, what could the Negro Motorist could look forward to in Washington, DC? 7 hotels (including YWCA and YMCA), 4 "tourist homes," 3 taverns, 2 restaurants, 3 beauty shops (but zero barbers listed), 1 garage and 2 service stations, 2 taxicab companies, 1 country club, and 2 night clubs. Other than NYC that may be the longest listing for a single city in the book. All that information occupies less than half of one page. There are not many country clubs listed in the 1940 Green Book. I looked up the one listed for DC. I got exactly zero hits on every internet search for a country club named Grossland's. There's a message there about invisibility. I'm glad I've seen this Green Book, and at the same mighty sorry I ever saw it. It's the kind of incontrovertible piece of history that shows just how deep the white mythos of the era really was. Movies were all white. TV in the 50s was nearly all white. History textbooks of the 30s, 40s, and 50s were basically all white. Perhaps this review will in some way be helpful in bringing some attention to this little piece of history. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/42431117-the-negro-motorist-green-book-1940-facsimile-edition](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/42431117-the-negro-motorist-green-book-1940-facsimile-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
