King: A Life by Jonathan Eig
5.0
challenging funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective fast-paced

As we went into Black History Month, I knew I wanted to dig a little deeper into Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Junior.  I figured you can’t go wrong with a Pulitzer Prize winner, and that instinct was spot on.  I learned so much about MLK Jr, his contemporaries, and the civil rights movement.  This biography is presented in an astonishingly (and somewhat compulsively) compelling narrative.  Strong recommend.
