"With the digging that went into A Promise of Justice," Protess and Warden achieved what most journalists hope to do at some point in their lives. They made a real concrete difference and helped right a wrong. . . . And on top of that, they wrote a page-turner." -- Linda Friedlieb, Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, Nov. 22, 1998.
