Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. A nice, lightly handled First Edition copy of this very scarce title! Near fine in trade paperback -- clean and unmarked -- with no markings of any kind. First edition: one of 150 copies. Designed by Dave Wofford of Durham's Horse & Buggy Press. "Hickstown (now known as the Crest Street community in Durham, North Carolina) was the first community in the nation that stopped a highway from uprooting its neighborhood, and forced the city and state to have it relocated in its entirety.

It shows what segregation and racism looked like to the African American people who experienced it. Yet it also demonstrates how the individuals in one family fought back and made a difference for their family and for their community." (131 pages.)
