Tsesis very well describes the history of Civil Rights. He very well describes how minorities struggle. He has a great understanding of the Civil Rights. A very well written book, there were no historical or editing errors.

This is a GREAT BOOK with a lot of meaning. I learned so much about the history of civil rights in the United States. I would definitely recommend this book.

Excellent narrative, strongest in the 19th century. Negligent editing left too many typos and even at least one repeated paragraph(!).
