Mary Twitty has personalized this remarkable era during which men who had been enslaved became leaders in this country. The familial exposures in which she portrays these historical men take the reader out of the rigors of government and behind the scenes into their individual lives. It is her purpose to provide the information about what these few men tried to accomplish during their brief tenures. Their sole objective was the completion of the Civil Rights Legislation. Regrettably this was not accomplished.
