    			  Friends I grew up with in Louisiana wanted me to read this.  hmmm.  it's ok and the accents are just almost right.  Based on my personal experience, there was a lot of truth.  Luckily my mother was an early civil rights supporter.  But it's really just a best-seller kind of book.  One of those books that makes you feel liek you ate too much chips and dip.
