A book called Residence detailing race and segregation in Dallas celebrated with a reissue Thursday. The Central Dallas Public Library on Yonge Street has a display on the seventh floor of historical photos and news excerpts that support the issues presented in the book. Author Jim Schutz conducted his initial search for the book in the library from 1984 to 1986 before there was an Internet search for information.
