Weary feet, rested souls

a guided history of the Civil Rights Movement

1st ed.

by

Thirty Years after the Civil Rights Movement transformed America, Weary Feet, Rested Souls brings the landscape of this compelling period of history back to life. Logging 30,000 miles of field research and more than 100 interviews with veterans of the Civil Rights Movement, author Townsend Davis chronicles the churches, jails, courthouses, homes, barber shops, soda fountains, and even a bowling alley where the formative events of this inspiring movement took place.

Featuring 25 original maps, 113 photographs, and excerpts of speeches and other unseen firsthand materials, Weary Feet, Rested Souls is a unique achievement, filling a large gap in the history of our time.
