''Coretta is more relevant today than ever . . . a female who takes responsibility for creating something better in the time she has and the space she has to occupy: that is true greatness. And Coretta did that.'' Maya Angelou
Born in 1927 in the Deep South, Coretta Scott always felt called to a special purposeAfter an awakening to political and social activism at college, Coretta went on to study at the New England Conservatory of Music, where she met Martin Luther King Jr. - the man who would one day become her husband. The union thrust Coretta into a maelstrom of history, throughout which her tireless fight for political and social justice established her as a champion of American civil rights.
Now, fifty years after her husband''s death, the story of Coretta''s life is told in full for the first time: a love story, a family saga, a record of the legacy left by this extraordinary woman.
