520    "In 1955, Emmett Till was lynched when he was 14 years 
       old. That remains an undisputed fact of the case that 
       ignited a flame within the civil rights movement that has 
       yet to be extinguished. Yet the rest of the details 
       surrounding the case remain distorted by time and too many
       tellings. What does justice mean in the resolution of a 66
       year-old cold case? In A Few Days Full of Trouble, this 
       question drives a new telling of the story of Emmett Till,
       relayed by his cousin and best friend-the Reverend Wheeler
       Parker, Jr., a survivor of the night of terror when 14-
       year-old Emmett was taken from his family's rural 
       Mississippi Delta home in the dead of night"--|cProvided
