As I've Come to Expect

When I see a book by Mary Stanton, I have learned to expect a well-research subject told in an interesting and engaging manner. Freedom Walk: Mississippi or Bust is no exception. This story of a unique individual is, for the most part, unknown. She has delved into his life to make him and his trek a part of the history of the civil rights movement. I applaud her efforts and look forward to her next book.

A real page turner

Ms. Stanton takes on a complicated story and pulls the reader along on a most insightful, informative and important ride. A real pleasure to read.
