Amazing story told from a first-person perspective
More history books should be presented in this format. Black and white drawings are the optimal format for telling a story that needs no embellishment.

Fantastic
What a great tribute to John Lewis and the Freedom Riders. What a great way to teach kids about his legacy of faith, character, bravery, and sacrifice for the country he loved. To teach love and non-violence. To show that loving your country sometimes means you gotta make some "good trouble." To teach that loving even those who hate you - who would kill you - can turn things around. This project was a bold and creative idea, to tell the story of bold people. Thank you.

Everyone should read
I can’t say any different than for book two. This continues the amazing journey and the powerful willdullnezs for freedom.A great lesson to remember about a pivot time in American history. The bigotry, racism and hatred that was endured (and sadly returning since 2016 presidential election and current administration) is a despicable mark on this country. What these people endured to be treated with human respect and decency is inspiring.This is a book that series that should be read by every middle school student and discussed - and revisited often.The artwork is great because it indicates the dark times that was endured and felt. It’s a very easy reading style that lets the art tell the story with a well selected wording to bridge the details.Highly recommended.

peace through nonviolence
I have read history books of america. But nothing as powerful as MARCH. The history of mr. John Lewis is a powerful message to all people of all nations that nonviolence can change the state, the country, the world. Just hope and keep faith. It will not be over night,but it will. So thanks to all of them that marched before us.even if I didn't know all those who did in glad I know a lot of them now through this awesomely fantastic book. I am proud to be a white american and feel love for these fantastic people who not only marched but wrote these three books. My thanks. Remember one person, one vote

Valuable Perspective to the Civil Rights movement and its soft end
This is a book I wish I had as a child, in middle school, high school. It’s integral to the development of a person to understand BIPOC contributions to the World and American History. It is an approachable book while being very informative. I will pass this on to my children and their grand children.

The world will miss but long remember John Lewis
The graphic novel in Kindle is vibrant and as engaging as video, perhaps more so. I hope more school systems include this series in curriculum - it is a compassionate and yet unblinking survey of the civil rights movement of that generation. If we’re lucky, it will serve as a guide for the civil rights movement going forward as we continue to build this great union cloaked in democracy and freedom.

A great addition to the "March" series on the civil rights movement
March, Book Three picks up where Book Two left off in telling the story of the re-invigoration of the civil rights movement in the late 1950's and 1960's, as seen through the eyes and life experiences of John Lewis, the last living member of the Big Six civil rights leaders who initiated the 1963 March on Washington. Using the "graphic novel" form, Congressman Lewis, Andrew Aydin and Nate Powell have put the civil rights struggle in words and drawings favored by many young people born many years after the events depicted took place, making that struggle "real" to them. The three book series does a major service in educating young Americans of all races about a critical period in the civil rights movement.Richard Davies

A trip worth taking.
I didn't write a review for the second book. I did for the first and I feel I need to say something for the last. It's hard to believe this happened but it did. It's hard to believe folks could hate someone for the colour of their skin that much but they did. It's hard to imagine enduring all that and not raising a fist, but they managed it. In doing so they managed so very much in the face of what seem like overwhelming odds. These are the sort of heroes we need in the world.

Great Novel
What a great ending. I purchased the series so my son, who is homeschooled, could understand what the struggle was. We have both enjoyed the books. Kindle version is awesome.
