Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Italic title A History of the Negro Troops in the War of the Rebellion, 1861–1865 by George Washington Williams (published 1888) was a major book-length academic history of military history of African Americans in the American Civil War.[1] Carter G. Woodson called it "one of the most valuable accounts of the Civil War."[2]

Williams himself served with the U.S. Colored Troops.[3] Williams has been described as "the finest black prose stylist of his day" and his History showcases this skill.[4] Williams' book has been called the most important of a trio of histories of 19th-century African-American military histories written by black authors, alongside Williams Wells Brown's The Negro in the American Rebellion and Joseph T. Wilson's The Black Phalanx.[5]

Williams' historiographic use of newspaper reports, soliciting records of local groups through newspaper advertisements, and oral histories, including traveling to interview soldiers, was pioneering.[2] The creation of the book is considered a part of the "birth of black studies."[6]
