    We Must Never Forget
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2024*

Zucchino has written a brilliant detailed history of the conspiracy and coup that took place in Wilmington.  It must not be forgotten.  Frighteningly, the threat of white supremacy remains one of the greatest dangers to our democracy even today.  it is shocking how evil people can become when they dehumanize, torture and kill people due only to the color of their skin.

    Shocking History
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2023*

I'm a native North Carolinian in my seventh decade of life and spent several years of my childhood living in Wilmington.  The story told here is shocking, disturbing and not altogether surprising.  Of course the truth of the Wilmington coup was never taught to me in public school.  I'm thankful to the author for telling the story as it occurred, unvarnished by rationalization for a bygone era.  It was a hideous event and can in no way be justified or contextualized.What equally saddens me though is the uninterrupted continuation of political actions in my beloved home state designed to suppress voters of color under the cover of eliminating voter fraud.  The past repeat itself.  Seems the past has never fully left us.Excellent book, superbly written, and engaging from start to finish.  Highly recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    History we all should know
  

*by I***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2023*

This book illustrates why we need to know our our full history to understand the story of America.This compelling story is masterfully told.  The depth and extent of the author’s research is amazing — although I really didn’t need to know which thug had a mustache while the other had a mustache and a beard.  A minor criticism of a worthwhile read.
