"An incredible accomplishment. It is the history of John Lewis, the Civil Rights Movement and his role in it... a book that explains - more deeply than anything else I've ever read - the methods and the moral foundations of the civil rights movement, how civil rights activists did what they did and won what they won, and how they had the strength to do it in the most difficult circumstances imaginable." - Rachel Maddow
