The Autobiography of Martin Luther King, Jr.
Edited by Clayborne Carson
Student, Minister, Husband, Father, and World Leader
‘A professor of history, and the noted author and editor
of several books on the civil rights struggle, Dr. Clayborne
Carson was selected by the estate of Dr. Martin Luther King,
Jr., to edit and publish Dr. King’s papers. Drawing
upon an unprecedented archive of King’s own words-including
unpublished letters and diaries, as well as video footage
and recordings-Dr. Carson creates and unforgettable self-portrait
of Dr. King. In his own vivid, compassionate voice, here is
Martin Luther King, Jr. as student, minister, husband, father,
and world leader…as well as a rich, moving chronicle
of a people and a nation in the face of powerful-and still
resonating-change.’
“Exceptionally successful…illuminates
the intellectual underpinnings of King’s courage.”
-The New Yorker
Softcover. 416 pages.
