Most people know Coretta Scott King as the wife of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the civil rights leader. Coretta's march on freedom road made her a great leader, too. Alice Faye Duncan blends poetry and prose to follow Coretta from a challenging childhood in segregated Alabama, to music training in Boston, to her brave years as a wife, mother, and activist fighting for equal rights and her husband's legacy.
