  In 1949, Florida's orange industry was
booming, and citrus barons got rich on the backs of cheap Jim Crow labor. To maintain order and profits, they turned to
Willis V. McCall, a violent sheriff who ruled Lake County with murderous resolve. When a white seventeen-year-old
Groveland girl cried rape, McCall was fast on the trail of four young blacks who dared to envision a future for
themselves beyond the citrus groves. By day's end, the Ku Klux Klan had rolled into town, burning the homes of blacks to
the ground and chasing hundreds into the swamps, hell-bent on lynching the young men who came to be known as "the
Groveland Boys." 
  
  And so began the chain of events that would bring Thurgood Marshall, the man known as
"Mr. Civil Rights," and the most important American lawyer of the twentieth century, into the deadly fray. Associates
thought it was suicidal for him to wade into the "Florida Terror" at a time when he was irreplaceable to the burgeoning
civil rights movement, but the lawyer would not shrink from the fight--not after the Klan had murdered one of Marshall's
NAACP associates involved with the case and Marshall had endured continual threats that he would be next. 
  

 Drawing on a wealth of never-before-published material, including the FBI's unredacted Groveland case files, as well as
unprecedented access to the NAACP's Legal Defense Fund files, King shines new light on this remarkable civil rights
crusader, setting his rich and driving narrative against the heroic backdrop of a case that U.S. Supreme Court justice
Robert Jackson decried as "one of the best examples of one of the worst menaces to American justice.
