[Y]ou won't find a richer examination of this event... The Sound of Freedom is a book to sing about., On the 70th anniversary of that groundbreaking concert, The Sound of Freedom reminds readers of a turning point in American life., "Arsenault attempts to revive our interest in Anderson's feat by examining it in the context of a complex and often turbulent racial landscape. And he succeeds handily." -Washington Post "[Y]ou won't find a richer examination of this event… The Sound of Freedom is a book to sing about." - Houston Style Magazine "On the 70th anniversary of that groundbreaking concert, The Sound of Freedom reminds readers of a turning point in American life." -New York Times Book Review "A notable addition to the historical record…Arsenault's book is a timely reminder of the worm of history turning once more.

Deeply researched, vividly written, sparkling and dramatic, The Sound of Freedom is more than a biography of Marian Anderson, her struggles and triumphs over time.

Synopsis
A notable addition to the historical record...Arsenault's book is a timely reminder of the worm of history turning once more.-- Boston Globe On Easter Sunday 1939, celebrated vocalist Marian Anderson sang before a throng of seventy-five thousand at the Lincoln Memorial. Though she was at the peak of a dazzling career, Anderson had recently been barred from performing at the Daughters of the American Revolution's Constitution Hall because she was black. Eleanor Roosevelt resigned from the DAR over the incident, turning it into national news. The courageous Anderson made the most of a politically charged occasion, captivating the world with her talent and her dignity. This richly textured story from acclaimed historian Raymond Arsenault captures an early milestone in the struggle for civil rights, the quiet heroism of Anderson, and a moment that still inspires Americans of every race., "A notable addition to the historical record...Arsenault's book is a timely reminder of the worm of history turning once more."-- Boston Globe On Easter Sunday 1939, celebrated vocalist Marian Anderson sang before a throng of seventy-five thousand at the Lincoln Memorial.
