First edition of this volume containing two of King's most notable devotional addresses presented at the first National Congress on Christian Education at the United Church of Christ. Octavo, original cloth. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Jacket design by George Malick.
Martin Luther King presented What is Man? and The Dimensions of a Complete Life before an audience of 3000 delegates at the first National Conference on Christian Education at Purdue University in the summer of 1958. In both addresses, King resolutely expresses his concern for justice and brotherhood and details the non-violent methods he advocates based on a serious commitment to the Christian Faith. He argues meditation and action to be indivisible functions of the religious life as illustrated in numerous biblical parables and teachings. King performed the addresses during his time as a pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama, and president of the Mongomery Improvement Association, Inc.
