"An engrossing, well-written study."
-- "Journal of American Studies"
"An engaging writer, Hill has written a graceful book that fills an important gap in civil rights scholarship."
"Florida Historical Quarterly"
"Hill has written a masterful account of a vital, understudied organization. This will undoubtedly be "the" book on the Deacons for a long time."
"The Journal of Southern History"
"Hill's ground-breaking, historical narrative adds not only to Southern historiography, but to that of the United States as well."
"Louisiana History"
"This is a significant book."
"The North Carolina Historical Review"
"This well-argued revisionist text should spur useful debate and encourage others to recast traditional civil rights-era narratives."
"The Journal of American History"
