King: A Life by Jonathan Eig
5.0

The pacing was perfect and it was sophisticated without leaving anyone behind. Completely engaging and generous with new relevations uncovered by original research and interviews. This man became so great and iconic BECAUSE he was 100% human, and this book helps us understand that. The last two lines of the last chapter: "'[O]ur very survival,' he wrote, 'depends on our ability to stay awake, to adjust to new ideas, to remain vigilant and to face the challenge of change.' Amen."
