"Litwack displays a keen sense of the revealing expression and
incident; a controlled passion against injustice and cruelty; and a
grasp--not always in evidence these days--of the elements of
genuine tragedy in the black-white confrontation that has shaped
southern history."--Eugene Genovese, The New York Times Book
Review
"As a comprehensive study of the coming of freedom, Litwack's book
has no rival."--C. Vann Woodward, The New York Review of Books
