Industry Reviews
"In Jervis Anderson's biography, Rustin lives again in all his protean complexity and eccentricity. This is a fine, sensitive book."
Advertisement - David Levering Lewis

"Anderson's great virtue as a biographer...is an ability to...to make sharp and reliable political judgments. His very choice of topics shows how solid are his instincts."
New Republic - Paul Berman (04/21/1997)

"This well-written biography is a fitting tribute to a great civil libertarian."
Johnson

"The picture that emerges from Jervis Anderson's admiring portrait is of a man with an almost insouciant imperviousness to the many trials, assaults and frustrations he experienced as he moved through the public world."
Wheatcroft
