Kirkus Reviews, October 1, 2007



On November 13 , Stanley Tookie Williams's memoir is being reprinted by Simon & Schuster's Touchstone Division.



The book includes a foreword by Tavis Smiley and an epilogue by Barbara Becnel.

Pre-order the book now from Amazon Books (pre-order price, .88) which can be reached from a link on the www.STWLegacy.net website. The book can also be ordered from any bookstore or from www.BarnesandNoble.com.







Let's ensure that on November 13, Blue Rage, Black Redemption opens on the New York Times bestseller list!



Why It's Important to Pre-Order This Book

The STW Legacy Network ( www.stwlegacy.net) is launching this pre-order campaign to ensure that Blue Rage, Black Redemption debuts at the top of the New York Times trade paperback bestseller list. Getting the book there?and keeping it there?will make a powerful statement about the value of Stan's work, his legacy for peace, and the injustice and immorality of a judicial system that kills. The weekly appearance of Blue Rage, Black Redemption on the New York Times bestseller list will strengthen the anti-death penalty movement by keeping its issues in the forefront of public awareness.



The book is being released as a trade paperback; its full price will be .00. As mentioned above, Amazon is discounting the book to .88 for pre-orders. Order copies now at www.stwlegacy.net for friends and family, for holiday gifts, and to sponsor high school classes as well as junior college classes serving at-risk communities with a 10-plus order of books as a tax-deductible donation to such institutions. Also, donate books to your local library and to churches that have?or can be encouraged to create?prison and youth ministries, as well as to community-based organizations that offer after-school programs for troubled youth.



Remember, Blue Rage, Black Redemption includes a copy of the Tookie Protocol for Street Peace, thus providing a peacemaker tool in each book that can help keep the peace in the streets of urban areas throughout the nation.



For more information about the efforts to advance the peacemaker and criminal justice reform legacy of Stanley Tookie Williams, contact the STW Legacy Network at www.stwlegacy.net or call Barbara Becnel or Crystal Bybee at 510-235-9780.
