Description: "In this book, historian J. Todd Moye masterfully reconstructs Baker's life and contribution for a new generation of readers. Those who despair that the civil rights story is told too often from the top down and at the dearth of accessible works on women who helped shape the movement will welcome this new addition to the Library of African American biography series, designed to provide concise, readable, and up-to-date lives of leading black figures in American history"--Jacket, p.
