This Is the Day: The March on Washington

havent got to it yet but looking through it it appears to be exactly what I wanted

Leonard Freed book, This Is the Day: the March on Washington is a very wonderful book to have and to read. Its texts by Julian Bond and Michael Eric Dyson are exceedingly thought provoking. And the pictures by Freed are riveting. It was the everyday people who changed America then and who will continue to change it in the future. Freed captures that obvious but often overlooked notion by selecting the people of the King. His leadership is certified by his vast following. Freed captures the strength of the following not only in its numbers but its reflection of the real America's variety.I love this book; it will be on my coffee table for a long time.

I can feel the emotion from the images displayed in this book's photographs! It makes for an excellent source for dialogue in a group setting. These pictures tell the story..

The pictures in the book say it all! This is a great coffee table book to have - especially with the 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington coming up.

This is an excellent table book that chronicles history. I absolutely love it. The pictures are dynamic and expressive. A must read.

Outstanding photojournalism! The pictures are moving, emotional, historical and memorable. Good for everyone's library. Anyone who is into history will enjoy this book.

The best next thing to being there. I was there and I know!

Love this book
