Good book, his later edition with the added foreword is nice too but not enough to specifically search for if you have one of the earlier publishings already.

If you find you enjoy Woodward’s book I recommend you read,Simple Justice by Richard Kluger. In his book, Kluger outlines the NAACP’s long and tortured battle against segregation in education. He brings little known significant figures to life. For example, who is Charles Houston? Houston was Thurgood Marshall’s law professor and mentor at Howard University. Through Houston, Marshall joined the NAACP. When Houston left the NAACP, he selected Marshall to succeed him as head of the Legal Defense Fund. Simple Justice is considered a classic. It was originally published in 1975 and the author says that it has never been out of print. For anyone interested in the eradication of educational segregation, Simple Justice is a must read!!
