Excellent Overview

This book covers a critical part of the 1960s Civil Rights struggle that took place in St Augustine, Florida. It's an often overlooked corner of history, with cities in Mississippi and Alabama and their citizens getting more examination and recognition. This book is a great introduction to this segregated city at its turning point in history and the people whose great courage made a difference.
