Writing in silver ink, Eckford relates the harrowing events of September 4, 1957, including her efforts to reach the school entrance, running the gauntlet of Arkansas National Guard and local citizens hostile to her. A reporter's attempt to give her advice, encouragement and comfort only served to whip up the mob. Sold together with a color laser photocopy of Eckford writing the essay presented her.Condition: Excellent.
