An indispensable access to the very essence of American ethos."--Jerzy Kosinski"The story is so dramatic it sometimes tells itself."--New York Times Book Review"A definitive history . . . written tightly and well."--Washington Post Book World"A rich, textured history of the ACLU . . . brings the group and its members to life. . . . Walker's discussion of anticommunism within the ACLU is one of the best examples of his own lack of bias and his willingness to present the organization's history, warts and all."--Harvard Law Review "[A] marvelous history of the ACLU. It made me relive some of my past life and taught me things I had either forgotten or never knew." --William Kunstler "This book is more than a compelling history of the ACLU. It is the fascinating story of America's most exciting legal struggles and of rights reviled in one era and vindicated in the next." --Eleanor Holmes Norton -[A] fusion of masterful scholarship with libertarian thinking.
