Publishers Weekly, starred review
“In an effort to understand the world in which he grew up, the author has uncovered a shocking story as heartbreaking as it is infuriating... Phillips successfully contextualizes
Forsyth in American racism’s long history…. An impressive reckoning with a shameful piece of the past.”
Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“This harrowing chronicle of racial cleansing feels eerily contemporary and all-too relevant… Phillips brings a journalist’s crisp perspective to this precise and disquieting account.”
