Rich's: A Southern Institution (Landmarks)
"Fantastic book!" - Steve Goss, "One On One" With Steve Goss, WABE, NPR"[An] absorbing new book. ... One of the book's more fascinating  sections concerns the reluctant role Rich's played in the civil rights  movement in 1960, when black students from the Atlanta University Center  [along with MLK, Jr.] tried to obtain service in the store's legendary  Magnolia Room." - Jill Vejnoska, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution"Clemmons  provides the nuts and bolts of the colorful department store's  history--presenting a rather complete treatment of the Atlanta Sit Ins  when students from the Atlanta University complex sought to fully  integrate the store in the early 1960s." - Maria Saporta, SaportaReport "...a  decade after its brand vanished from the marketplace, a first-time  author has written a book that preserves the history of a store that for  138 years was part of a city's soul. "Rich's: A Southern Institution"  [however] is more than the story of a retail giant." - Richard Hyatt,  The Ledger-Enquirer
