An American Insurrection: The Battle of Oxford, Mississippi, 1962, by William Doyle (read 18 Dec 2002) This is a thoroughly satisfying and exciting book, being the story of the effort to get James Meredith into the U. of Mississippi. I guess I had not realized or had forgotten just how awful those horrendous events connected therewith were. While the author appears to rely on mainly anti-Kennedy books to relate the actions of the President and his brother, yet the book is sheerly interesting and while it is appalling that sane people could act as so many did at the time, yet it is a joy to realize how things have changed, with Ole Miss in the year 2000-2001 having the student body president, the newspaper editor, the quarterback and the head basketball coach black. This is a well-constructed book and well worth reading. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Almost 30 years ago, James Meredith tried to integrate the University of Mississippi and ignited an armed white rebellion. This book recreates the day the country went to war against itself. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
