THE
ЖГЕК8
In fbrting the Waters, the first volume of his Amer¬
ica in the King Yean, Taylor Branch begins an epic
of America on the threshold of its most explosive
era.
Moving from the fiery political baptism of a
young Southern minister named Martin Luther
King to the FBI and the corridors of
Camelot
where the Kennedy brothers weighed demands for
justice against political realities and the decep¬
tions of J. Edgar Hoover, fbrtmg the Waters is a
vivid tapestry of our nation, torn and finally trans¬
formed by a revolutionary struggle unequaled
since the Civil War
—
the American civil rights
movement.
Through a gallery of characters from presi¬
dents and movie stars to students, government
agents, journalists, and ordinary citizens whose
lives were changed forever, Branch takes us into
the streets and jails where the battles for freedom
were fought. And drawing from previously unre-
leased tape recordings of the Kennedys and of
King in private, he reveals the deals, maneuvers,
betrayals, and rivalries that determined history
behind closed doors.
Branch chronicles the struggle from the twi¬
light of the Eisenhower years through the rise of
King and the bitter presidential contest of
1960
where the outcome turned on the Kennedy camp
s
reluctant campaign for the black vote. Wsexperi-
ence the arrest of Rosa ftutks and the Montgomery
bus boycott; the
lundi
counter sit-ins; the bloody
(continued from front flap)
Freedom Rides which fanned tension between
King and the administration; the violent con¬
frontation at
Ole Miss;
the siege of Birmingham;
the church bombings; the murder of Medgar
Evers,
and as the struggle reached its apex
—
the
nightmare of Kennedy s assassination.
Branch provides a revealing, unsurpassed por¬
trait of a Martin Luther King never seen before
—
a sophisticated man in revolt against his own
heritage, gravitating between conscience and
temptation. Similarly, Branch illuminates the pri¬
vate conflicts of John and Robert Kennedy, prag¬
matic politicians whose liberal sympathies did not
preclude the appointment of conservative South¬
ern judges. Here, too, is J. Edgar Hoover, who
harassed the movement with secret wiretaps and
trumped-up charges of communism and who
manipulated JFK with his knowledge of the Presi¬
dent s most intimate secrets. In addition, we come
to know Stanley Levison, King s controversial,
and closest, confidant; the remarkable Robert
Moses of SNCC; the flamboyant Bayard
Rustin;
and the heroes among Kennedy s men
—
John
Doar
and John Seigenthaler, who braved bloody
attacks and the scorn of Southern sheriffs.
Monumental in scope and impact, Fbrting the
Waters is a masterpiece of American history with
this century s most dynamic leaders at its center.
To be followed by a second volume,
РШаг
of Fire,
spanning the LBJ years, the agony of Vietnam,
and the eclipse of American liberalism, fbrting
the
Waten will
endure for generations. Here is the
definitive record of the movement that realigned
American politics and is still felt around the
world.
