- Summary:
- When she was 23, Ida B. Wells-Barnett launched a crusade against lynching, which became the focus of her long, courageous life. In a series of pamphlets she created a damning indictment of unpunished crimes that was difficult to contest since southern white men who had witnessed the appalling incidents had written the descriptions. This volume contains three of her most influential pamphlets on lynching.
