- "God ('the Big One') has told Willie Velasquez that it's time for him to examine his life. And on the 30th anniversary of his death, the late voting rights champion does, in a series of heartfelt letters to his community, his wife, and the world. Based on a true story, the letters recount Willie's childhood memories, dreams, confessions, and most of all, his landmark achievements in democracy."--Page 4 of cover.
