Johnson and eleven contributors share insight on the Freedom Summer of 1964, which is known as a crucial moment in U.S. civil rights history in eleven papers organized into two parts: Freedom Summer and Western College for Women, and The Freedom Summer Memorial. Individual papers discuss the Freedom Ride, reflections of a life changing experience, overview of the Freedom Summer Memorial, and the memorial design and site selection. The book includes photographs of the stones in the memorial, which describe in detail exactly what happened. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
