The history of a movement...,
By
This review is from: The Citizens' Council: Organized Resistance to the Second Reconstruction, 1954-64 (Paperback)
Despite the pro-leftist stance of the author, this book is a classic. It details the history of a movement that resisted government coersion with a great deal of success considering what they were up against. To fully understand the inner-workings of the counter-civil rights movement, or better stated the White rights movement, this book is a must read. http://cofcc.org
