Rezension

"State of Segregation is an accessible, well-organized, well-researched account of Alabama's important role in the legal history of civil rights and social justice." - Frye Gaillard, author of Cradle of Freedom

"State of Segregation translates the opaque language of law into a tongue anyone can understand." - John Miller, JD, is professor and assistant director of New College at the University of Alabama

"State of Segregation is an irreverent and entertaining look at both familiar and lesser known, but important, civil rights and liberties cases. Tenhundfeld's brief review of the case law will encourage readers . . . to learn more about these and the many other significant cases from Alabama." - Steven P. Brown, author of Alabama Justice: The Cases and Faces That Changed a Nation
