Reviews

"A gripping narrative of the civil rights struggle in Florida's capital . . . The author's work mining the relevant archives and court records is impressive. . . . In exploring the roots, evolution, and outcomes of African American civil rights struggles in Tallahassee, Rabby illuminates 'the promise of protest' while remaining ever-mindful of 'the pain of what is yet undone."--"North Carolina Historical Review"

"A highly readable book, rich in detail, conversational in tone, informative."--"Florida Times Union"

"This will be a significant contribution to civil rights historiography and will bring Florida's civil rights history into the literature in a way that has not fully happened."--David J. Garrow, author of "Bearing the Cross: Martin Luther King, Jr., and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference"

"Until Rabby, no one had chronicled the entire civil rights movement in Tallahassee and validated . . . what it was: a crucial part of American history."--"Tallahassee Democrat"
