From the Back Cover:

Part history and part meditation, Down To Now is a southern journalist's intensely personal account of the civil rights movement in the South during the 1960s. Pat Watters, first as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal and then as a writer for the Southern regional Council, followed the movement from the early days of sit-ins, marches, and freedom rides through the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., and the Poor People's Campaign in the summer of 1968.

About the Author:

After his career as a reporter, Pat Watters (1927-1999) taught journalism at the University of Louisiana-Lafayette. He is the author of numerous books including "Climbing Jacob's Ladder: The Arrival of Negroes in Southern Politics" and "The South and the Nation."
