Eric Etheridge's wonderful photo-essay book chronicles the courage and stories of the Mississippi Freedom Riders who opposed racism in 1961. Library Journal "[A] remarkable book. . . . We see a collective portrait marked by a combination of fear, good humor, and above all extraordinary courage and commitment in the face of virulent and sometimes violent racism. [An] absolutely inspirational work--one of the most powerful experiences a reader can have." Julian Bond, Chairman, NAACP "Breach of Peace literally gives faces to the faceless and anonymous heroines and heroes who changed America in 1961."
