Gray was just twenty-four years old when he became the defense lawyer for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a young minister who had become the face of the bus boycott that had rocked the city of in Montgomery, Alabama. In this incredible history, Gray takes us behind the scenes of that landmark case, including such unforgettable moments as: Martin Luther King's courageous response to a bomb threat on his own home; Poignant, searing testimony that exposed the South's racist systems to an worldwide audience; The conspiracy to destroy Gray's career and draft him into the Vietnam War; The unforgettable moment when a Supreme Court ruling brought the courtroom to a halt.
