Description
In a time when discussions of race are once again coming to the fore, the event that launched the civil rights movement--the 1955 lynching of a fourteen-year-old black boy named Emmett Till--is now reexamined by an award-winning author with access to never-before-heard accounts from those involved as well as recently recovered court transcripts from the trial.
