Led On! Step by Step
This crucial memoir describes important events and people often ignored in histories of Reconstruction in the South. During a period of political battles and violent confrontations, Rev. Porter work tirelessly to build a society of educated people who could respect each other even when they disagreed. His vision of a community that could raise itself economically and spiritually was far ahead of his time, and exactly what the South needed--and still does.Faye Jensen, executive director, South Carolina Historical Society
