In this inspiring and accessible biography Duster, Wells' great-granddaughter, tells the incredible story of Wells's life, including stories from her childhood in Mississippi, committing herself to the needs of those who did not have power, and cofounding the NAACP. -- adapted from back cover and page 7 of first chapter.
