The Story of My Life and Work I 900 The Story of My Life and Work appeared in three revised editions, in the spring of I 90 I, the fall of I 90 I, and I 9 I 5. The first revision, after the sale of ~s,ooo copies, altered the original version in two major respects. It included new material written by T. Thomas Fortune, to fill in blank pages at the end of eight chapters. Most of this material was of a reflective or philosophical rather than factual nature. The first revision also changed the order of the final chapters, ending with the one entitled ''Looking Backward.'' The second revision, in the fall of I 90 I, added an index, two additional illustrations, and a chapter on the National Negro Business League. The third revision, in 1915 soon after Washington's death, included an account by Gabon L. Holsey of Washington's life from I 900 to ~ 9 I 5. The present edition includes the chapter on the National Negro Business League from the second revision, and follows the first revision in ending the volume more logically with the chapter ''Looking Backward.''
