Detailed View of the Important Montgomery Movement
If you have read The Autobiography of Martin Luther King Jr (MLK), incidents of the bus boycott in Montgomery, Alabama are duplicated but conveyed in more detail. The book clearly explained the life and mindset of the participants of the movement. It is a treasury of information on the life, personality and mind of MLK that have guided him throughout his vocation as leader of a non-violent anti-slavery movement. It will benefit all blacks and immigrants like me, even the Left and Radicals, to read MLK's books at this time and in this place of our present world. We can all benefit to apply his movement to our times to make America a better place.

Very informative
Dr. King shares his involvement in the Montgomery bus boycott and emphasizes his philosophy of non-violence. I also found interesting Dr. King's critique of Marxism which can be found in this book.

We need inspiration, courage, hope, faith, and love, for this troubled time.
One of the most inspirational books I have ever read. I can barely imagine the courage and strength required for Dr. King to lead as he did.

In his own words, King promotes peace and integration through boycotting
Martin Luther King Jr. was not only an excellent writer but an incredible man. This books exemplifies the usefulness of peaceful protest and boycotting and how such actions successfully ended segregation in many businesses in the South. This work also destroys the myth that Martin Luther King had a soft spot for un-peaceful protest and rioting. In his own words he proves that this could not be further from the truth. A brilliant book by a brilliant man.

A Classic
If you want to read some inspirational works, Dr Martin Luther King's work is historical yes, but to read it from his words is another level of motivation to live a life of non violence. Dr King's theory and deeds are surpassed by few. I'm going to read the whole series!
