Laurence Leamer is an incredibly prolific author of wildly popular books in the genre of dramatic nonfiction history. Among them is the outstanding biography of Arnold Schwarzenegger and the absolute New York Times bestsellers The Men of the Kennedy Clan and The Women of the Kennedy Clan. This time, the writer took on a topic that has recently become incredibly relevant: he leads an intense, extremely emotional story about one of the main battles for civil rights in the United States. Lynching in 1981?! Impossible - this hasn’t happened for a quarter of a century! And yet it happened: a teenager was brutally murdered by members of the Ku Klux Klan simply for his dark skin color. With difficulty, but justice overtook the murderers. This is not enough for lawyer Morris Dees, a future US legend. He planned to use the case to accomplish what everyone thought was impossible: completely destroy the KKK... A non-fiction book, as dramatic as a best-selling novel. Washington Post Powerful. Absorbs completely. Kirkus Reviews
