"A Long Road to Justice" is a collection of fifty short stories, essays, and pieces, mostly in the form of either historical fiction or historical non-fiction. Throughout his book, author Bob Mack emphasizes fundamental themes such as justice and injustice, kindness and cruelty, tolerance and intolerance, and more. Fundamentally, these stories elaborate on devotion to the Constitution and betrayal to the Constitution. As a whole, these pieces address the reality that the road to justice is a long and winding path, and an uneven ride. Throughout the book, forty-four of the pieces are written in verse and rhyme. Some of the briefest pieces could be considered short poems; but most of the forty-four pieces are narrative stories or essays. Six of the longer pieces are written in straight prose. The writings intend to push back against the three-headed monster of injustice, racism, and intolerance - in all of their ugly forms.
