Description
"Born into a family of pastors, Martin grew up understanding the power of words. As a child, the world he lived in was deeply divided, and he knew he had to change it. Learning from greats like Gandhi, Martin used words to touch people's hearts with love and justice, rather than hatred and violence." --from back cover.
