In The Judgement of Deke Hunter, George V. Higgins tells the story of a small town in the Deep South that is caught up in the turmoil of the Civil Rights Movement. The town is led by the Reverend Deke Hunter, a courageous and principled man who is determined to stand up against the bigotry and intolerance of his peers.

Despite the obstacles he faces, Deke is able to bring together the townspeople and help them learn to respect and appreciate each other. In the end, he is rewarded for his efforts with the respect and admiration of his community.; 8vo; 274 pages; Price? ? ?
