Illustrated with several full-page photographs. Chicago History Museum, "The Red Summer of 1919". Tuttle, Jr. recounts the history of the 1919 Chicago Riot starting with the murder of Eugene Williams, a young Black man who was swimming in Lake Michigan when a group of white men threw stones at him, causing him to drown. Tuttle aims to examine the riots from the common person's point of view, rather than use evidence from the political elites of the time. A slight lean and an occasional underline in the text; jacket has a crease and toning on each flap.
