MILLION MAN MARCH by Michael H. Cottman, photo editor Deborah Willis (Crown: $14; 96 pp., illustrated, paperback original). The numbers and significance of the massive rally that took place on Oct. 16, 1995, will be debated for years to come. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Michael Cottman offers an enthusiastic account of his experiences there. He revels in the sense of unity and dignity, praises the organizers and endorses their program of positive conduct and action. Cottman avoids mentioning any controversies, including the ones surrounding the Rev. Louis Farrakhan, in this engaging sermon to the choir.
