191422336NY: Luther Burbank Press. Fair. 1914. First Edition. Hardcover. This is the special limited edition bound in leather with a page printed by Tiffany & Co. And signed by Luther Burbank. Now the bad part. While the contents are "fine" the bindings are not. The boards on volume one are loose and the spine is simply gone. The rest of the volumes vary from fair with loose boards to very good with edge rubbing. So either a set ripe for rebinding or simply to enjoy having Burbank's signature.

"H-H" code on copyright page.<br /> <br /> King's classic and very personal account of what began as a bus strike sparked by the arrest of Rosa Parks and ended in a Supreme Court decision and the first successful large-scale application of nonviolent resistance to an American situation.<br /> <br /> From Stanford University The Martin Luther King Jr. Research and Education Institute-<br /> <br /> "In 'Stride Toward Freedom' King delineates racial conditions in Montgomery before during and after the bus boycott. He discuses the origin and significance of the boycott the roles that residents civic leaders and community organizations played in organizing and sustaining the movement and the reactions of white Montgomery officials and residents. According to King before the boycott African Americans in Montgomery were victims of segregation and poverty but after the boycott when bus desegregation was achieved they evidenced a new level of self-respect King 'Stride Toward Freedom' p. 28 p. 187. King points out that most African Americans in Montgomery accepted a nonviolent approach because they trusted their leaders when they told them that nonviolence was the essence of active Christianity.<br /> <br /> "In the chapter 'Pilgrimage to Nonviolence' King delves into the intellectual influences that lead him to nonviolent philosophy. He discusses the impact made upon his thinking by the works of Thoreau Marx Aristotle Rauschenbusch and Gandhi.

181820352Leipzig: Karl Tauchnitz 1818. First Edition thus. Full Morocco. Outer case also full morocco. Fine. A miniature embossed plaque a relief of the da Vinci painting "The Last Supper" mounted onto the front cover and framed in silver. 12mo. 148 by 93 mm. 239 pp. With frontis steel engraved plate. Tauchnitz issued bibles both new and old testaments in various formats. However we are aware of no bibles published by Tauchnitz before 1818. Furthermore none of other copies of the 1818 New Testament issued by the company appear to have a binding with an embossed plaque such as this one. It is our sense that the plaque was issued like this by Tauchnitz given the similarity of the material and our observation that other copies of this edition have black morocco similar to our copy with some of the same detailing but that the plaque accompanied the binding in only a small number of copies and possibly only this copy. The book proper has the lightest of wear. The silver frame of the plaque is slightly tarnished but a good polishing will take care of that. The outer case does have a few abrasions and scratches. Its green inner lining has spots of rubbed color loss. However the box remains structurally sound and also attractive. Karl Tauchnitz unknown

First book by Martin Luther King Jr. written at age twenty-nine presenting a direct account of the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the formation of the Montgomery Improvement Association during the opening phase of the modern Civil Rights Movement. The work establishes King's early articulation of nonviolent resistance as both a method of political action and a framework grounded in Christian theology and Gandhian philosophy.

The volume includes photographic sections depicting boycott participants and key figures along with introductory endorsements by Benjamin Mays and Ralph McGill that situate the book within contemporary public discourse at the time of publication.<br /> <br /> Published during the consolidation of the Civil Rights Movement the book provided an early written record of organized Black resistance to segregation and circulated widely among national and international audiences.
