"

Kremer has managed to produce an insightful and provocative account of a post-Civil War black leader who, despite the political influence he wielded during the nation's most controversial period, never fully benefited from the promise of equality."--Journal of American History

"Kremer was diligent and discerning in his research, and his story is a credible one nicely crafted."--St. Louis Post-Dispatch

"Despite the fact that James Milton Turner left no personal papers, Kremer does a credible job in describing the public life of this significant leader in post-Civil War Missouri, and in doing so adds to the growing literature on African American political leadership in the late 19th century." --Choice
