The Last Crusade: Martin Luther King Jr., the Fbi, and the Poor People's CampaignIn The Last Crusade, Gerald McKnight examines the Poor People's Campaign, the last large scale demonstration of civil rights era America, and the systematic efforts of FBI director J. Edgar Hoover and his executive officers to subvert King's ambitious effort to force the federal government to live up to its promises of a Great Society. The book also looks at King's last days as he helped Memphis sanitation workers in their labor cum civil rights
In The Last Crusade, Gerald McKnight examines the Poor People's Campaign, the last large-scale demonstration of civil rights-era America, and the systematic efforts of FBI director J. Edgar Hoover and his executive officers to subvert King's ambitious effort to force the federal government to live up to its promises of a Great Society. The book also looks at King's last days as he helped Memphis sanitation workers in their labor-cum-civil rights struggle with a recalcitrant and racist city government. Although there is no persuasive evidence that the FBI and the Memphis police conspired to assassinate King, McKnight marshals evidence to show that neither agency was blameless.The conventional view of the Poor People's Campaign is that it was a self-inflicted failure. The blame rested squarely on the shoulders of the second-raters of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference who failed to fill the leadership vacuum after King's assassination. But, as McKnight shows, there was a hidden, dark counterpoint to the accepted version--namely, the triumph of the 1960s American surveillance state and its repressive power and flagrant violation of protected freedoms. In fact, whatever the FBI wanted to do to disrupt the Campaign, it did, aided and abetted by local police agencies and elements of the federal government, including military intelligence.Binding Type: Hardcover

Good fit and looks great

Good quality and looks great, the only complaint is the lace is a bit short
But size is good and color is perfect too.

Narrow and small
Size: 10.5, Color: Black/City Skyline/Egret
I mostly chose these due to the foam rubber soles, as I was looking for a more comfortable sneaker. They are more comfortable and the quality looks decent, too, although I wish the leather wasn't so shiny.
The fit is quite narrow, and while they're okay for my narrow feet, I still wonder if the wider fit would have been better.
This is my 2nd pair of Cole Haan sneakers and the first were too small. So this time I ordered the next size up and the fit is not much different, so I'd say they run small all around. Despite that, they're big enough and are still quite comfortable.
Finally, the laces are too short. This is probably by design, so they're not dangling around, but I find them difficult to tie. They're nice, waxed laces, but they just need to be long enough to work with.

Young professional son loves them! They are very comfortable and stylish. They fit well with the new "business attire" standards and work well for going from work day to evening social.
