• My publisher, John Wiley & Sons, has informed me that "The Road to Someplace Better: From the Segregated South to Harvard Business School and Beyond" has been selected for a Global Rights Department license by Audible. So not only will we have a print version, there will be an audiobook version! Audible will produce a verbatim unabridged reading of the book, read by a professional actor/narrator, with production values comparable to a CD edition. It will be available for downloads on Audible.com, iTunes and from Amazon. Audible offers a digital library of over 60,000 titles of best sellers, classics and popular genres in audiobook form for easy download. Audiobooks can be transferred to iPods, streamed from the computer or burned to CDs.

“The Road to Someplace Better: From the Segregated South to Harvard Business School and Beyond,” from John Wiley & Sons, is currently available for purchase on Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com.

We will post an update on the planned release date of the audiobook, so please check this website for future announcements.
