{"product_id":"9781416585589","title":"Long George Alley: A Novel","description":"Natchez, Mississippi, 1965: Racial tension is running high, the Ku Klux Klan holds a community captive, and many local blacks -- impoverished and apathetic -- are resigned to a fate decided by Jim Crow. A novel based in part on the author's own experience as a voter registration driver and Civil Rights activist, \u003ci\u003eLong George Alley\u003c\/i\u003e follows the lives of twenty-two men and women who endure two eventful days of racial strife at Duncan Park. \u003cbr\u003e Duncan Park is a place that boasts an oasis of lush green lawns, a world-class golf course, and long-held attitudes about segregation in the South. But soon the old folks at this exclusive country club will see a new generation of blacks and whites rally together -- in protest -- and make history. Strikingly original and brilliantly written, \u003ci\u003eLong George Alley\u003c\/i\u003e offers a rare and evocative look back at a critical, unforgettable time in America's history.","brand":"Washington Square Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47141122441456,"sku":"9781416585589","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781416585589_p0.jpg?v=1763727018","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781416585589","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
