Recenzii

“Readers of A Stronger Kinship will enjoy its prose, admire its characters, and very likely agree with Cox that the history of this small Michigan town teaches us about hope and the possibility for racial reconciliation in our own time.”—Frank Towers, Chicago Tribune

“An inspirational story of tolerance and decency.”—Diane Robert, Atlanta Journal-Constitution

“A gladdening, unsentimental chronicle of a Midwestern town that practiced racial equality against all late 19th-century odds.”—Kirkus Reviews

“Anna-Lisa Cox brings us the remarkable story of this extraordinary place, Covert, Michigan. Intensively researched and well crafted, this inspirational story gives the reader a glimpse of the way the people of one town chose to live their lives, regardless of the social norms of the time.”—Historical Society of Michigan Chronicle

“Cox emphasizes that a widespread problem is not always an inevitable problem. . . . The author’s analysis of statistics and written records and the way she uses them to illustrate race relations in Covert, Michigan, contribute greatly to this book’s high quality.”—Michigan Historical Review
