William Doyle, An American Insurrection

Doyle answering questions from Dr. Cole at the Overby Center.
Can you say that you are the first person to ever look at over 9,000 pages worth of FBI files on James Meredith? Well, William Doyle can. Doyle, the author of the book, An American Insurrection, revisited Oxford this past Tuesday to kick off a celebration of 50 years of the desegregation of Ole Miss.
Doyle's topic was about his book and what it took to write it.
-SOT-
Inside the novel, Doyle covers the "little war" that took place in Oxford that night in 1962. While at the Overby Center, Doyle answered questions to students eager to learn more about the past.
