Story of the Negro by Arna Bontemps is a children's history book published by Knopf in 1948. It was the first African-American authored book[1] to receive a Newbery Honor.[2] The non-fiction book begins with a history of major African civilizations such as the Ghana and Mandingo Empires. The horrors of the Atlantic slave trade are described, together with the causes and conditions of slavery in America, the Haitian Slave Revolt, and the Underground Railroad. Several influential black leaders are examined, including Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, and W. E. B. Du Bois.

The first edition was illustrated by Raymond Lufkin.
