Why read it?
1 author picked As Good as Anybody as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
As Good as Anybody is the story of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel. Martin Luther King, Jr. grew up in the south and experienced racial discrimination.
Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel was born in Europe and experienced anti-Semitism. These two men formed a close friendship. They marched together and prayed together. They became leaders for social justice and acceptance.
I am recommending this book because it is a wonderful story about two men who tried to break the barriers of race and religion.
