the hunt for Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassin
"On the evening of April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King, Jr., stepped onto the balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee. What happened next -- a man in a window, a rifle, and a single shot -- was one of the most horrific and tragic events of the twentieth century. But this audiobook is about more than a murder. It is the story of two men set against the backdrop of the turbulent 1960s -- a decade of assassinations, the civil rights movement, the Vietnam War, the counterculture, and the race to the moon. It is the story of King's heroic life, his tumultuous last year, and his fateful trip to Memphis. But it is also the story of a mysterious, lifelong criminal -- James Earl Ray -- whose 1967 escape from prison set him on a strange, yearlong journey that unexpectedly climaxed with King's murder and one of the biggest manhunts in American history."--Provided by publisher.
