Biography of Martin Luther King's widow, from her childhood in rural Alabama to her crusade to keep her husband's message of peace and equality alive after his murder in 1968.

Grade 7 Up-Rhodes covers little-known incidents in her subject's life as well as her better-known roles as speaker, singer, supporter of the holiday honoring her slain husband, and founder of the King Memorial Center. This is a mainly positive account but the author does mention the controversy surrounding King's actions in carefully guarding her husband's writings and speeches and her request for a new trial for the now-deceased James Earl Ray. King is portrayed as a committed and courageous person who has continued to fight for justice. The chapters are well organized and the clear, well-chosen black-and-white photographs are attractively presented.
