520    Plessy v. Ferguson, the Supreme Court case synonymous with
       “separate but equal,” created remarkably little stir when
       the justices announced their near-unanimous decision on 
       May 18, 1896. Yet it is one of the most compelling and 
       dramatic stories of the nineteenth century, whose outcome 
       embraced and protected segregation, and whose 
       reverberations are still felt into the twenty-first.  
       Separate spans a striking range of characters and 
       landscapes, bound together by the defining issue of their 
       time and ours—race and equality. Wending its way through a
       half-century of American history, the narrative begins at 
       the dawn of the railroad age, in the North, home to the 
       nation’s first separate railroad car, then moves briskly 
       through slavery and the Civil War to Reconstruction and 
       its aftermath, as separation took root in nearly every 
       aspect of American life.
