About Robert Roberts

Robert Roberts was the author of The House Servant's Directory: A Monitor for Private Families. Published in 1827, the book was the first commercially published book written by an African American in the United States. His intent in writing this was to teach the "general rules and directions for servants to go by as shall give satisfaction to their employers, and gain a good reputation for themselves." The book was sufficiently popular that two later editions were printed.
