Book Description:
This political analysis of history considers the electoral calculation behind John F. Kennedy's reluctance to support civil rights. While long viewed as a stroke of political genuis, this book presents political evidence that shows moderation on civil rights was the product of a grand political miscalculation. This is the first comprehensive treatment of the history of The Freedom Rides.
