Overview
In 1969, in a small Texas town a battle, led by a reluctant David Sanderson, is waged between seven young men and women who just want to go to school and Alois Jacobs, a vicious state appointed psychiatrist from South Africa who wants them locked up in an institution and destroyed because they're "retarded". They've got a message for Jacobs and the Texas School Authority; "if you want to make this happen, you are going to have to come and get us, ....and we are not going to make it easy for you " This is a story about courage, dignity and the struggle for knowledge denied that will leave the reader inspired and with a reminder that in every battle, every war, everyone pays a price, ...even the victor.
