Abstract | African Americans have always proved willing to fight and die for their country, but have had to overcome obstacles and tremendous prejudice to allow them to do so on equal terms. The Right to Fight analyses their experience as part of America's military achievement and draws attention to their many acts of valour. [From WorldCat.] |
