2. I am not reading fiction this week,

but I wanted to kick your thread.

I am reading Arc of Justice by Kevin Boyle. It is a non-fiction book about a black Detroit doctor who was tried for murder in 1925. He tried to integrate a white neighborhood, and a white man was shot in the ensuing disturbance.

Shortly after Clarence Darrow argued the Scopes trial, he took on this case.

The writing is so good in this book that it could pass for a well-written action thriller.

The book was written in 2004. I can't remember how long it has been since I bought it. I don't buy much fiction, only nonfiction.

If you read nonfiction once in a while, try this one.
