The Sound of Freedom: Marian Anderson, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Concert That Awakened America | 
so-soMarian Anderson was a fascinating woman and I deeply admire her grace, courage, and talent. Didn‘t love the book too much though. Just over half the book was about Anderson. The epilogue was mostly about politics, culture, and the DAR. A large chunk was the bibliography of source material. King was similar in that I liked the documentary more than the book. Didn‘t get a lot extra out of reading them. Interesting, but both felt dry and academic.
