"This Road Since Freedom: The Making of a Dream" a tribute to the work of C. Eric Lincoln, 1991

Dr. Lincoln created and maintained several files of records which do not center around any one activity or subject. Instead, these files consist of documents which reflect a mix of activities, subjects and events of interest to him. The correspondence is often from organizations wishing him to speak at a certain event, or from scholars seeking advice on a particular project. Some letters are from prisoners who wrote to Dr. Lincoln on a variety of subjects. Other noteworthy items are those which explain the creation of the Black Academy of Arts and Letters, an organization Dr. Lincoln was involved with in the 1960s and 1970s. The rest of the material consists of brochures and announcements of Lincoln's speaking engagements, travel records and expenses during the time of his research on the Black Church, proceedings of conferences he attended and general reference material.
