Summary: | "I want people to know I've never been a saint. Can't nobody blackmail me. Can't nobody tell on me more than I've already told-I'm still going to be a man." -- That's Charles Evers speaking, mayor of the town of Fayette, Mississippi, brother of the murdered civil rights leader Medgar Evers. Because Charles Evers' own "spokesmanship" is so much part of his story, Grace Halsell has capture his words on tape editing them into a chronological whole without diluting the force and quality of the man himself. The raw essence of a human being, free to tell the truth, spills out on every page. -- (Front jacket flap.) |
