(1) 4-6 In his account of this defining episode in the fight for racial equality, Freedman shines a spotlight on the sacrifice and courage of thousands of unsung African Americans who boycotted Montgomery's buses for 381 days--jeopardizing livelihoods and safety. The expertly paced text, balanced but impassioned, emphasizes the strategizing, organizing, and restraint from all involved. Well captioned black-and-white photographs enhance this absorbing narrative. Bib., ind.
