Negative Positive
Title: Not thorough or complete
Review: Huie may have written part of the story, but if you're using this for research, be aware that he did selective reporting. The alarm about the missing trio was raised by Louise Hermey, a volunteer who had traveled with the group and who was at the office when the station wagon was overdue. She spent the night trying to locate them."Before her stint ended at the COFO office in Meridian in the summer of 1964, Hermey said she briefly spoke to one journalist, William Bradford Huie, author of the 1965 book, Three Lives for Mississippi.'He hung around the (COFO) office,' she said. 'I caught him making long-distance calls and kicked him out of the office. As he walked away, he said, 'You'll be sorry for this. I'll write you out of history.' 'Her name never appeared in Huie's book."I'm wary of journalists who have personal agendas, especially spiteful ones.A more accurate account of those events can be found in "We Are Not Afraid" by Cagin and Dray.
