![]() None No current Talk conversations about this book. ![]() ![]() Review borrowed from mikitchenlady (my alter ego): Excellent account of the events leading up to and the people involved in the Selma-Montgomery voting rights march, in a semi-fictionalized account. Written by the son of civil rights lawyer, Jack Greenberg, this is a great middle school book to help students understand this important period in our history. Readable, not too long, poignant -- a middle school must-have.
