"He was a poor kid who grew up believing that if you played by the rules and worked hard, you'd succeed. And for a while he did. Larry Mungin's pursuit of the American Dream took him from a Queens housing project to Harvard Law School and to the Washington, D.C., office of Katten Muchin, a blue-chip Chicago law firm, where he worked toward achieving a coveted partnership. Everything was in place; he'd spent his whole life preparing to make it in the white world, and now he was ready to reap the rewards. But instead of becoming a partner, Mungin became the plaintiff in a racial discrimination suit that would rock the legal world and turn his life into a struggle for survival. What went wrong? What turned the American Dream into an American nightmare?"--BOOK JACKET.
