One of the least publicly recognised heroes of the civil rights, John Minor Wisdom served as a member of the US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and wrote many of the landmark decisions instrumental in desegregating the American South. In this biography, Joel William Friedman explores Judge Wisdom's legal contributions and political work.
