Dean Robb is a nice guy, and "An Unlikely Radical."
He grew up in a one-room school house town, a farming boy and the son of a rock-ribbed republican.
But he fought fearlessly for the rights of others through the height of McCarthyism and the push for civil rights.
His son Matt tells the story in a new biography. The pair will be signing copies of the new self-published book, "An Unlikely Radical," Thursday, December 23 6:00-8:00 pm at Horizon Books in Traverse City.
