"This valuable document of recent history is skillfully written, with a plain eloquence. Honigsberg is especially good at rendering conditions in Louisiana in the mid-Sixties. We have precious few narratives of this sort from the civil rights period, and this one will join a small, distinguished company."--Todd Gitlin, author of "The Sixties" ""Crossing Border Street" offers a window onto the civil rights movement in the rural South during the mid-1960s and captures what it was like for a young northern volunteer to work with some of the key figures and organizations in the freedom movement in Louisiana."--Robby Cohen, New York University "This memoir of the movement in Louisiana is a welcome addition to the literature of the civil rights struggle, serving to leaven as other memoirs have a literature too often dominated by dry, scholarly studies. The book is also welcome for the light it shines on struggles--in Louisiana in general and Bogalusa in particular--that for all their importance have been eclipsed by the attention accorded to the movement in other places."--Doug McAdam, author of "Freedom Summer"
