Why We Can't Wait
The Autobiography of Martin Luther King Jr. is fascinating, read his book to understand the deepest and most personal thoughts of one of the most influential men in history! This book was a true "eye-opener" for me. History books fail to capture the true emotion and ...
Three Lives for Mississippi

University Press of Mississippi

Buy it!
What makes this book interesting is that it was written between the murders and the trial. Huie knew who the murderers were, how they did it, and never expected a guilty verdict. The book introduces you in detail to Michael (Mickey) Schwerener and all the details ...
Stride Toward Freedom
Jr. Martin Luther King
Perennial Library Harper & Row

Although it attempts to interpret what happened, it does not purport to be a detailed survey of the historical and sociological aspects of the Montgomery story. It is therefore limited in scope and its point ...

Martin's last words to America : Is anyone listening ?
