This tour book is organized around four tours of important civil rights sites in Atlanta. The first three tours, Auburn Avenue, Atlanta University Center, and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, provide information about sites located within a single neighborhood. The fourth tour identifies and describes various demonstration sites and important grave sites. The book begins with a 30-page history of the civil rights movement in Atlanta in the 1950s-60s, then offers background and directions to each site, along with b&w historical photos and color photos of the sites today. The book ends with a chronology from 1957 to 1968. An index of sites with GPS coordinates is included. Lefever is professor emeritus of sociology at Spelman College in Atlanta. Page is the geospatial librarian for the Robert W. Woodruff Library at Emory University in Atlanta. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
