Ida B. Wells-Barnett: A Voice Against Violence

I located this book at a branch of the Nashville Public Library a few years ago while doing research for a wood carving of Ida B. Wells. Of course the text is meant for a juvenile audience, but it was a very good source of pictures of Ida B.Wells and by that time more pictures were the main thing I needed.It gives a good if brief review of her life.
