James Earl Ray, nondescript thief and con man, drifts through the South, into Mexico, and then Los Angeles, where he is galvanized by George Wallace's racist presidential campaign. February, 1968: a Memphis garbage strike. Martin Luther King joins the sanitation workers' cause, but their march turns violent. King vows to return to Memphis in April. Historian Sides follows Ray and King as they crisscross the country, one stalking the other, until the drifter catches up with his prey. Against the backdrop of the resulting nationwide riots and the pathos of King's funeral, Sides gives us a cross-cut narrative of the assassin's flight and the 65- day search that led investigators to Canada, Portugal, and England--a massive manhunt ironically led by Hoover's FBI. Drawing on previously unpublished material, this nonfiction thriller illuminates how history is so often a matter of the petty bringing down the great.--From publisher description. 561 Gift of Dr. Thomas Simonet. 600 10 King, Martin Luther,|cJr.,|d1929-1968|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79084324|xAssassination.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99002420 600 10 Ray, James Earl,|d1928-1998.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n80062915 600 17 King, Martin Luther,|cJr.,|d1929-1968.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/40023 600 17 Ray, James Earl,|d1928-1998.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/55270 650 7 Assassination.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/818962 856 41 |3Sample text|uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/ fy1106/2009043659-s.html 856 42 |3Contributor biographical information|uhttp:// catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1106/2009043659- b.html 856 42 |3Publisher description|uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/ enhancements/fy1106/2009043659-d.html 901 MARCIVE 20231220 948 |d20160930|clti|tlti-aex 994 C0|bRID
