This book introduces readers to King's life--from his childhood in the segregated South to his role as a key leader of the Civil Rights Movement. Clear, straightforward text explains how his belief in equality and nonviolent protest guided events such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the March on Washington, where he delivered his famous "I Have a Dream" speech.
