In his own words, King promotes peace and integration through boycotting
Format: Paperback
Martin Luther King Jr. was not only an excellent writer but an incredible man. This books exemplifies the usefulness of peaceful protest and boycotting and how such actions successfully ended segregation in many businesses in the South. This work also destroys the myth that Martin Luther King had a soft spot for un-peaceful protest and rioting. In his own words he proves that this could not be further from the truth. A brilliant book by a brilliant man.

Very informative
Format: Paperback
Dr. King shares his involvement in the Montgomery bus boycott and emphasizes his philosophy of non-violence. I also found interesting Dr. King's critique of Marxism which can be found in this book.

Short accessible great read on one of the most beautiful beings this world has yet seen
Format: Audiobook
This is a very short, quick-paced story of the beautiful heart-mind that was called Gandhi.
It does a great job at getting at the essence of Gandhi (depending of course on your already built paradigm and the glasses you are wearing). Highly recommended along with his Autobiography - I read his autobiography and watched the movie before reading this one, possibly the other way around works too.
He is such an inspiration! Great few hours spent. And to come back to.

Brilliant
Format: Paperback
Of many books about Gandi that I have read, I find that this one really follows and details not just his political beliefs and his many professional and family activities, but his development as a spiritual leader as well and lots of photos. It's a beautiful book and I plan to buy more copies as gifts.
