"4.5 stars. Engaging, infinitely readable, and filled with history you probably haven't heard about anywhere else. Had to take a half a star away for the lack of pictures, because being able to put faces to names and places would have made the book even more engrossing. "

    " Interesting new book on racial cleansing in parts of the United States. Not just racism, but wiping out black populations in certain parts of the country, which remain white to this day. "

    " This more a collection of events than an analysis of the events but the sheer number of the events builds a disturbing history. What is perhaps more horrifying than the events of the early twentieth century is the attitude of current residents of these towns. "

    " This book was an amazing eye opener into American History. This is the bases for my future dissertation. Be on the look out for Hesley R. Keenan Jr.'s first published work on this topic. :-) "

    " A very eye-opening book (to sound clicheish) about racial cleansing in America. It made me grieve the lingering effects of racism in my own heart. Overall a good read, even if the stories did seem a little scattered and jolting at times. "
