Marching Through The Flame

Author Chief Henry E. Allen’s experiences from the beginnings of the Civil Rights Movement to the horror of the Vietnam War are recounted with a searing simplicity that gives the truth of each event its own booming voice. Filled with unbelievable moments of survival and serendipity, “Marching Through the Flame: The Children of Selma Marched Through the Flame and Did Not Burn” will captivate the reader long after the last page has been read. Following the young Allen through his childhood, adolescence, and adulthood in the rapidly changing world around him is like stepping into American history in a way you never have before.
