“Kaplan’s book goes far beyond a history of the Tuskegee Veterans Hospital and its black physicians. Kaplan weaves a narrative of the struggle of blacks, racism in the military, institutional racism, and the civil rights movement. Highly recommended”—Choice; “worthwhile...interesting illustrations and is well referenced. A valuable addition to our understanding of the struggles of African-American physicians”—Watermark.
