Justice Through Espionage : The Melvin Jack Chisum Story, Journalist African American Spy, Federal Efficiency Agent, Civil Rights Negotiator

In Justice Through Espionage, Cecelia Brooks offers a throught provoking portrait of Melvin Chiusm, America's most notorious African American spy. The book calls into question past historical intrepretations. Using primary sources, many of which have never been unearthed until now, her understanding of Chisum is vastly different from the often-quoted caricature of him as an ugly, unprincipled and lecherous spy. Brooks also had the intellectual curiosity to consult a never-before interviewed primary source, Melvin Chisum's own son.Brooks, Cecelia is the author of 'Justice Through Espionage : The Melvin Jack Chisum Story, Journalist African American Spy, Federal Efficiency Agent, Civil Rights Negotiator', published 2006 under ISBN 9780979220302 and ISBN 0979220300.
