I ended up with 2 copies of this. One will stay in my to-be-read pile and I'll release the other!

In honor of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, this book will be traveling on a bookray. Send me a private message if you're interested in participating. Please include shipping preferences if you have any.

Tips for successful participation in a bookray or ring:

• As soon as you receive the book, add a journal entry so the sender knows it wasn't lost in transit.
• Try to read the book within 1-3 months so those after you in the shipping order don't have to wait too long.
• When you mail the book, add a journal entry with the date you mailed it. This will help me track it down with the postal service if it gets lost in transit.

Here are the BookCrossers who have expressed an interest in this bookray. We'll try to stick to this order if at all possible. When you're done, send a private message to the next person on the list and arrange to mail it to him or her. The last person on the list can pass it on to whomever they want. Enjoy!

Thanks for sending! Can't wait to read it~

wow, I just finished reading this book, and it was an amazing experience. I never fully realized what a profound writer King was until now. He is one of my inspirations and heros.

oops- forgot to log in~

I'm waiting for "cyber-librarian"'s mailing address, and once I get that, the book will be on its way.

I received this in the mail today from literarylover in FL ...as part of this bookray.

c. 1963 -- 152 pages + Index -- Paperback -- Classics -- Nobel Peace Prize-winner

Back Cover: Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. - Memphis, TN - April 3, 1968 - "And then I got into Memphis. And some began to say the threats -- or talk about the threats that were out. Or what would happen to me from some of our sick white brothers. Well, I don't know what will happen now. We've got some difficult days ahead. But it really doesn't matter with me now. Because I've been to the mountain top. I won't mind. Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land. I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land. So I'm happy tonight. I'm not worried about anything. I'm not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord." Martin Luther King's explanation of the events, the forces, the pressures behind today's -- and tomorrow's -- quest for civil rights.
