<p>A coffee-table-sized photo-history containing 120 photographs, many previously unpublished, of the 1962 riot over the admission of James Meredith, the first black student at the University of Mississippi, taken by photographer Edwin E. Meek; Introduction by Curtis Wilkie, Afterword by Governor William Winter. On Sept. 30, 1962, when a riot occurred at Ole Miss protesting the enrollment of James Meredith, Edwin Meek, then 22, a staff photographer for the university, stayed up all night taking over 500 photos including exclusive pictures of Meredith attending class. Meek is the Matthew Brady of the crisis, and with this book he has created an amazing document for the ages. (William Doyle, author of An American Insurrection)</p>
