Media Reviews

`A major contribution.' Library Journal
`Freedom Summer is an extremely interesting, readable account of the summer of 1964. It is clearly written, detailed, and well documented; enlivened by the words of those who experienced that summer.' Tampa Tribune Times
`What sets Freedom Summer apart from other historical literature on the period is its contemporary appeal. The book doesn't end in 1964. Its major focus is on volunteers today, their way of life, political activity and views on marriage, careers and the `80s.' San Francisco Chronicle
