Synopsis

A close‑up look at urban violence in Cleveland and the forces that shaped it. This nonfiction study sheds light on the events, responses, and investigations surrounding a summer of unrest.

This edition compiles an expert, documentary account of the 1968 Cleveland clashes, the roles of police and civilians, and the subsequent legal proceedings. It presents the material as a work of scholarship designed to inform readers and provoke thoughtful discussion about causes, consequences, and policy.

• Firsthand accounts of street battles, crowd dynamics, and police action in a divided city.


• Analysis of the trial and conviction proceedings surrounding key figures in the violence.


• Context for how researchers organized and interpreted data on social unrest and violence.


• Discussion of the broader impact on community relations and public policy debates of the era.

Ideal for readers of historical nonfiction exploring mid‑20th‑century race relations, urban crisis, and law‑and‑society studies.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
