In his book he recounts the murder case against Klansman James Ford Seale. Mr. Maclean recalls the death of Henry Dee and Charles Moore, two young black men who were kidnapped and killed after hitchhiking outside Meadville, Mississippi, on May 2, 1964. The case was left unsolved for over forty years, until the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) indicted James Ford Seale in 2007, then seventy-one years old, for the kidnapping and murder. Mr. Maclean explores the reasons for the delay in convicting Mr. Seale and presents his thoughts on the former and current state of race relations in Mississippi. The guest interviewer was Richard Howorth, owner of Square Books in Oxford, Mississippi, where the interview took place. Mr. Maclean also responded to questions from members of the audience.
