The author recalls the many events that composed the former Senator's 47-year career, from his Presidential candidacy in 1948 to his 24-hour filibuster in opposition of the Civil Rights Act of 1957, and his movement from the Democrat to Republican Party in 1964. Joseph Crespino speaks at Lemuria Books in Jackson, Mississippi.
