Product Overview
A monumental account of an urban travesty.[It] has all the earmarks of a classic. Dick Lehrs The Fence, subtitled, A Police Cover-up Along Bostons Racial Divide, is a shocking true story of racism, brutality, official lies and negligence, when the truth about the savage beating of black plainclothes policeman by white officers was hidden behind a blue wall of silence. Respected journalist Lehr, winner of the Hancock Award, the Loeb Award, finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, and bestselling author of Black Mass and Judgment Ridge, sheds a brilliant light on all aspects of this powerful, disturbing event and its aftermath.
