Om Martin Luther King Jr
Martin Luther King was a giant in his generation - and continues to tower over American history. This new biography is a succinct and authoritative account of his life, revealing the multi-faceted and complex nature of this 'radical for Christ'. Offering shrewd and balanced judgements, Richard Reddie provides a fresh analysis of King's social, economic, racial and theological thinking. He assesses King's dream and whether it was realistic and, indeed, the degree to which, post the election of Barack Obama, it has begun to be realised. With a range of rarely-seen, intimate photos, this book is a compelling new portrait of a fascinating man. Richard Reddie is a writer, researcher and cultural commentator. His articles have appeared in many national publications including The Times and The Guardian. He is the author of 'Abolition! The struggle to abolish slavery in the British colonies' and 'Black Muslims in Britain' which was turned into a BBC Radio 4 documentary.
