A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
-SELECTED AS ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S FAVOURITE BOOKS OF 2023_
 
Vividly written and exhaustively researched, Jonathan Eig's King is the first major biography in decades of the civil rights icon Martin Luther King Jr. - and the first to include recently declassified FBI files.
 
Jonathan Eig casts fresh light on the King family's origins as well as MLK's complex relationships with his wife, father, and fellow activists. 'King' reveals a minister wrestling with his own human frailties and dark moods, a citizen hunted by his own government, and a man determined to fight for justice even if it proved to be a fight to the death. As he follows MLK from the classroom to the pulpit to the streets of Birmingham, Selma, and Memphis, Eig dramatically re-creates the journey of a man who recast American race relations and became the nation's only modern-day founding father - as well as its most mourned martyr. Eig gives as an MLK for our times: a deep thinker, a brilliant strategist, and a committed radical who led one of history's greatest movements, and whose demands for racial and economic justice remain as urgent today as they were in his lifetime"--Publisher's description.
