Elizabeth and Hazel two women of Little Rock Cover Image Large Print Book

Elizabeth and Hazel [large print] : two women of Little Rock / David Margolick.

Margolick, David. (Author).

Summary:

The names Elizabeth Eckford and Hazel Bryan Massery may not be well known, but the image of them from September 1957 surely is: a black high school girl, dressed in white walking stoically in front of Little Rock Central High School--and a white girl standing directly behind her screaming racial epithets. This famous photograph captures the full anguish of desegregation throughout the South and an epic moment in the civil rights movement.
