A beautiful commemorative edition of Dr. Martin Luther King's essay "Letter from Birmingham Jail," part of Dr. King's archives published exclusively by HarperCollins. With an afterword by Reginald Dwayne Betts On April 16, 1923, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., responded to an open letter written and published by eight white clergyman admonishing the civil rights demonstrations happening in Birmingham, Alabama. Dr. King drafted his seminal response on scraps of paper smuggled into jail. King criticizes his detractors for caring more about order than justice, defends nonviolent protests, and argues for the moral responsibility to obey just laws while disobeying unjust ones. "Letter from Birmingham Jail" proclaims a message - confronting any injustice is an acceptable and righteous reason for civil disobedience. This beautifully designed edition presents Dr. King's speech in its entirety, paying tribute to this extraordinary leader and his immeasurable contribution, and inspiring a new generation of activists dedicated to carrying on the fight for justice and equality.

After the Civil War, many disillusioned souls headed west in search of a new start. It was a grueling journey. Yet thousands, with their pioneering spirit, persevered to reach their goal. Is this book a work of fact or fiction? Could there be, somewhere along the Truckee River near the foot of the Sierra, remnants of a camp that was called Yellow Moon? Perhaps a few slivers of wood from an old wagon or a scrap of gingham or a button under a sage bush? Were the Dweller brothers real people? Did Berna and Nah-leah exist? Or is this whole story just whisperings as the west wind touches your shoulder? The author leaves it to the reader to decide.
