An electrifying story of the sensational murder trial that divided a city and ignited the civil rights struggle
In 1925, Detroit was a smoky swirl of jazz and speakeasies, assembly lines and fistfights. The advent of automobiles had brought workers from around the globe to compete for manufacturing jobs, and tensions often flared with the KKK in ascendance and violence rising. Ossian Sweet, a proud Negro doctor-grandson of a slave-had made the long climb from the ghetto to a home of his own in a previously all-white neighborhood. Yet just after his arrival, a mob gathered outside his house; suddenly, shots rang out: Sweet, or one of his defenders, had accidentally killed one of the whites threatening their lives and homes. And so it began-a chain of events that brought America's greatest attorney, Clarence Darrow, into the fray and transformed Sweet into a controversial symbol of equality. Historian Kevin Boyle weaves the police investigation and courtroom drama of Sweet's murder trial into an unforgettable tapestry of narrative history that documents the volatile America of the 1920s and movingly re-creates the Sweet family's journey from slavery through the Great Migration to the middle class. Ossian Sweet's story, so richly and poignantly captured here, is an epic tale of one man trapped by the battles of his era's changing times. Arc of Justice is the winner of the 2004 National Book Award for Nonfiction.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect
Color: Blue
I am fostering a Husky/Black and Tan Coon dog. We have had her since early February. She has chewed up a lot of my shoes. She destroyed my other dogs stuffed squeaky toys. So I decided to buy her this ball. She reminds me of Linus from Charlie Brown. She wakes up with this ball and falls asleep with it. I’ve not had another shoe fatality. This ball is her most loved possession. It is pretty tough. Now She did kill the squeaker within the first few hours (which trust me I am GOOD with that! I’ve never put treats in it. The rope is still attached. After this review I am going to buy her another as a back up!

Great for large breeds!
Color: Red, Color: Red
I have trouble finding chew toys that are both durable and affordable, but this one has been a great find! It’s perfect for larger breeds because it’s heavy-duty and made from thick, sturdy material. Unlike some rubber toys, it doesn’t have that strong rubbery odor, which I really appreciate.
Since it’s made from a single material, it’s also incredibly easy to clean—just wipe it down or give it a quick spray. Another bonus is that my dog’s teeth don’t squeak against it as much as they do with some other toys. Overall, I’m very impressed with the quality and durability. It’s an excellent value for the money, and I would definitely recommend it!

Durable and Dogs love it
Color: Red, Color: Red
Great for aggressive chewers. I have Large dogs that rip through almost every toy. They love to play tug a war with this but mostly just lay in the yard and chewed on it. Its still holding up strong. It is made od a heavy duty rubber type material. It has no odor. The color is bright red and has not faded as of yet. It appears to be safe since they have yet to chew any places pieces off. We take it camping or on trips so portability is nice. Its definately worth the money. I would recommend.
