While 30 percent of the county's residents were black, only 12 African Americans were on its voting polls. United States vs. Lynd was the first trial that resulted in the conviction of the southern registrar for contempt of court. The case served as a model for other challenges to voter iscrimination in the South and was an important influence in shaping the Voting Rights Act of 1965." FINE HARDCOVER, FINE DUST JACKET.
