Review

""Powerful Days" is powerful stuff. The freedom marchers look as heroic as Iwo Jima Marines fighting their way up a mountain-which is just what they had to do." "Newsweek"" "Every once in a while we receive a well-documented treasure of American history. This collection is such a treasure. . . . [Moore's] black-and-white photos of that era are classics of photojournalism, and as Powerful Days documents, those classics have lost none of their force and energy." Southern Living" "Powerful Days is powerful stuff. The freedom marchers look as heroic as Iwo Jima Marines fighting their way up a mountain-which is just what they had to do." Newsweek" "[This book] contains many images that will be wrenchingly familiar to those who lived through this proud moral turning point in American history." New York Times Book Review" "Every once in a while we receive a well-documented treasure of American history. This collection is such a treasure. . . .
