This is a beautiful first edition collection of the four full length works written by Dr. Martin Luther King. The four volumes are bound in modern full burgundy moroccan leather with marbled endpapers and top gilted edges.  Martin Luther King Jr. has now been dead longer than he lived. But what an extraordinary life it was. At 33, he was pressing the case of civil rights with President John Kennedy. At 34, he galvanized the nation with his "I Have a Dream" speech. At 35, he won the Nobel Peace Prize. At 39, he was assassinated, but he left a legacy of hope and inspiration that continues today. These four books form the cornerstone of his remarkable legacy.
