When Good Men Do Nothing The Assassination of Albert Patterson

Its provocative assertions, while discomforting for survivors of that drama, inevitably will trigger further debate among inquisitive types who like to revisit political assassinations."--Anniston Star "Grady has thoroughly researched his book, written it in a page-turner fashion, and . . . contributed substantially to a much better understanding of this bizarre chapter in mid-20th century Alabama politics."--Montgomery Advertiser Alan Grady is a contractor for NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville.
