Race Against Time: A Reporter Reopens the Unsolved Murder Cases of the Civil Rights Era

For almost two decades, investigative journalist Jerry Mitchell relentlessly pursued the Klansmen responsible for some of the most notorious murders of the civil rights movement. This book is his amazing story. Mitchell takes his readers on the twisting road that led to the reopening of four of the most infamous killings from the days of the civil rights movement and his role in bringing the killers of Medgar Evers, Vernon Dahmer, the 16th Street Church bombing, and the Mississsippi Burning to justice. This landmark book chronicles the historic race for justice and the efforts to put leading Klansmen behind bars years after they thought they had gotten away with murder.
