商品簡介
As an African American, Earl M. Middleton was an exception in the rural South: he was successful and prosperous. This book is his autobiography, a story that traces not only his life, but the evolution of southern race relations over the past 80 years. After serving as in infantry soldier in World War II, Middleton eventually began what was to become one of the largest real estate firms in Orangeburg, South Carolina. Along the way, he was active in civil rights during an extremely dangerous time, elected to the state assembly, and honored for his commitment to racial equality.
