Lewis Burke, "is one of the most significant untold stories of the long and troubled struggle for equal rights in the state." Beginning in Reconstruction and continuing to the modern civil rights era, 168 black lawyers were admitted to the South Carolina bar. All for Civil Rights is the first book-length study devoted to those lawyers' struggles and achievements in the state that had the largest black population in the country, by percentage, until 1930-and that was a majority black state through 1920" (Publisher's description).
