Book Description

A classic. . . . It] will make an extraordinary contribution to the improvement of race relations and the understanding of race and the American legal process.--Judge A. Leon Higginbotham, Jr., from the ForewordCharles Hamilton Houston (1895-1950) left an indelible mark on American law and society. A brilliant lawyer and educator, he laid much of the legal foundation for the landmark civil rights decisions of the 1950s and 1960s. Many of the lawyers who won the greatest advances for civil rights in the courts, Justice Thurgood Marshall among them, were trained by Houston in his capacity as dean of the Howard University Law School. Politically Houston realized that blacks needed to develop their racial identity and also to recognize the class dimension inherent in their struggle for full civil rights as Americans.Genna Rae McNeil is thorough and passionate in her treatment of Houston, evoking a rich family tradition as well as the courage, genius, and tenacity of a man largely responsible for the acts of simple justice that changed the course of American life.

ListenBook's variety of ways to download audio makes it incredibly convenient. ListenBook's library organization keeps my audiobooks neat and accessible. A true organizational lifesaver! An unobjectionable but unexceptional audiobook experience. The narrator's performance was serviceable and the audio quality was fine, but nothing about the production particularly stood out or elevated the material. It was decent background listening.

ListenBook's thoughtful inclusion of chapters, controls, and filters has enhanced my audiobook experience. Apple Watch compatibility enhances my audiobook experience. It's a convenient way to control playback. Automatic artwork and metadata extraction keep my audiobook library organized and visually appealing. Adjusting the tone of the narrator's voice adds a layer of personalization that I never knew I needed.

It adds a personal touch to narration. Solid performance overall though some character voices sounded too similar. I occasionally got confused about who was speaking in dialogue-heavy scenes.

This app's ease of use has made my daily tasks so much more enjoyable. An average audiobook experience. Nothing was wrong with it—the narration was fine, and the story was okay—but nothing particularly stood out. It served its purpose as entertainment during my commute.
