Parting the Waters: Martin Luther King and the Civil Rights Movement 1954-63 by Taylor Branch

4.0

This is a fascinating look at the civil rights movement in the United States from 1954 to 1963 and introduces readers to a variety of events and personalities. I was completely mesmerized by this book and wish that the rating system was more flexible. I would definitely give this book a 4.5 and I will be reading the next book in the trilogy very soon.
