Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Signed First Edition, First Printing of this uncommon community history of a small city that looms large in 20th century American history -- Selma, Alabama. Traces the community's history from its origins in the early 19th century to the late 20th century and includies an interesting discussion of the town's most notable event -- the civil rights confrontations at Selma in the 1960s. Fitts forthrightly addresses the events of the civil rights era, although he constructs an interesting twist to the historical memory as the relevant chapter is entitled "Selma, Birthplace of Equal Voting Rights." Throughout the book, Fitts is diligent about weaving the history of Selma's African American population into the general narrative.
