An absolutely riveting account from the inside with never before seen photographs of the unfolding of the civil rights movements. The author experienced first hand the events of the movement, listened at the feet of its leaders and tells the story as it has never been told before. Sometimes the story is told from the view of an innocent child, sometimes from the mind of a brilliant author. But no one can claim true knowledge of the movement without reading this book and seeing pictures which do not appear anywhere else. This is a MUST BUY BOOK!!!

This is a book that every young adult and adults should have on their coffee table!!! Never before seen pictures and told through the eyes of a child through the civil rights movement this book is a refreshing, new insight that is a fast paced read!! A book to revist again and again!!!!!

Partners to History is a beautifully written and illustrated story of the Civil Rights Movement, its unsung heroes, its celebrated heroes, and the American struggle for freedom and peace. It is imperative that educational institutions with quality American history programs have this masterful work of historical literature on its shelves.

These images are worth more than 1 million words. They speak the truth with clarity that is rarely achieved in a discourse about race in America. This is American history in its true form. A great editing job and choice of photos.

THIS IS A CLASSIC HISTORY LESSON

This book is a must have. I think it should be in all public schools. The writer tells a beautiful story about the Civil Rights Movement. The pictures are fantastic while we have all seen pictures of the Movement, these pictures tell a story. Great Job !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
