Críticas:

"A winner on the Best Books list is Selma, Lord, Selma, in which author Frank Sikora has simply and intensely evoked the bitter struggle of the 1965 civil rights marches in Selma through the memories of Sheyann Webb and Rachel West Nelson."--Wilson Library Bulletin

Reseña del editor:

Sheyann Webb was eight years old and Rachel West was nine when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., arrived in Selma, Alabama, on January 2, 1965, to organize peaceful demonstrations to protest discriminatory voting laws. Selma, Lord, Selma is their firsthand account of the events of the turbulent winter of 1965 - events that changed the lives of all Alabamians and of all Americans. From 1975 to 1979 journalist Frank Sikora conducted interviews with Sheyann and Rachel, which he wove into this poignant story of fear and courage, heartbreak, and determination.
