The
Montgomery Bus
Boycott, which ignited the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s, has always been vitally important in southern and black history. With the publication of this book, the boycott becomes a milestone in the history of American women as well. This autobiographical account of the creation of the boycott is the most important document on that highly significant episode since Martin Luther King\'s own version, Stride Towards Freedom. I feel certain that scholars and students will refer to this unique historical source for generations to come. --J. Mills Thornton, University of Michigan This valuable first-hand account of the historic
Montgomery Bus
Boycott, written by an important, behind-the-scenes organizer, evokes the emotional intensity of the civil rights struggle. It ought to be required reading for all Americans who value their freedom and the contribution of black women to our history. --Coretta Scott King A sharply remembered addition to the literature on what has become an event of mythic proportions, and a sound primer for those interested in community organizing. The author is scrupulously honest, modest, and gives unsung heroes much deserved praise. --Kirkus This fascinating memoir provides new evidence on the origins and sustaining force of the
Montgomery Bus
Boycott (1955-56). --Anthony O. Edmonds, Library Journal There\'s no substitute for this intimate memoir; it provides an immediacy and graphic intensity never before available. --Marge Frantz, San Jose Mercury News This powerful memoir is a milestone in the history of that boycott and in the American Civil Rights Movement. --American History Illustrated This absorbing study may become a minor classic in the literature of the Montgomery bus boycott. . . . Garrow correctly states in his Foreword that this book is the most important participant-observer account of the Montgomery protest available to students and scholars of the black freedom movement. . . . This straightforward, sensitive memoir is must reading for students of the civil rights movement. It is a powerful commentary on how a woman and the group she led rose up to throw off an injustice thrust upon them. When Jo Ann
Robinson and other Montgomery women decided no longer to play the role of contented black Southerners, they gave blacks everywhere renewed hope, and they helped to create a national leader who took them closer to the promised land. The Montgomery Bus Boycott
