"Killers of the Dream" by Lillian Smith, published by Anchor Books, Doubleday & Company, Inc. in Garden City, New York, 1963, is a Revised and Enlarged edition that delves into the complexities of Southern culture and the psychological effects of segregation. Smith, a prominent Southern writer and social critic, offers a profound exploration of race relations and social justice. This edition is particularly notable for its expanded content, offering insights not found in the original 1949 publication. The book is an essential read for those interested in the historical and social dynamics of the American South. This copy, once part of Howard University's Honors Program collection, shows signs of library use but remains intact with all pages secure. The presence of an inscription adds a personal touch to this historically significant work.
