About this title: In his autobiography, John Lewis looks back at his life and his role in the American civil rights movement. He describes his childhood in rural Alabama and his memories of the struggle: from the demonstrations in Selma, Montgomery, and Birmingham to the Freedom Rides, the march on Washington, and the death of the movement's most charismatic leader. In 1986, John Lewis was elected to the U.S. Congress as a representative from Georgia. A New York Times Notable Book for 1998.

"Amazing book! I couldn't put it down. John Lewis is an incredible person and remembers the time so vividly and with such heart. The courage of the civil rights people amaze and impress me. It's a hard book but well worth the effort!"
"An absolutely important read for every American. I knew nothing about the civil rights movement and this book takes you through it in great detail, by one of the people who was at the forefront. It is absolutely mind-boggling to try to comprehend how federal and state governments have been so vicious towards its own people.
I also feel this books helps me to understand our current political situation (in 2009) better than any other source that I've come into contact with."
"This book should be required reading for everybody, especially students and those with power. The Beloved Community should be the goal of all people. John Lewis is an amazing man and it is a wonder that he is not better known in today's world. He is a hero and should be treated as such."
"A must read for Sojourn. Interesting but on occasions slow and wordy. Glad I read the whole thing and not just bits, I was better prepared when we met him."
