In Parting the Waters, the first volume of his essential America in the King Years series, Pulitzer Prize winner Taylor Branch gives a "compelling...masterfully told" (The Wall Street Journal) account of Martin Luther King's early years and rise to greatness. Hailed as the most masterful story ever told of the American Civil Rights Movement, Parting the Waters is destined to endure for generations. Moving from the fiery political baptism of Martin Luther King, Jr., to the corridors of Camelot where the Kennedy brothers weighed demands for justice against the deceptions of J. Edgar Hoover, here is a vivid tapestry of America, torn and finally transformed by a revolutionary struggle unequaled since the Civil War. Taylor Branch provides an unsurpassed portrait of King's rise to greatness and illuminates the stunning courage and private conflict, the deals, maneuvers, betrayals, and rivalries that determined history behind closed doors, at boycotts and sit-ins, on bloody freedom rides, and through siege and murder. Epic in scope and impact, Branch's chronicle definitively captures one of the nation's most crucial passages.Binding Type: Paperback

Dog Loves this toy!
Color: Crab
Keeps our poodle entertained and excited. The rechargeable battery lasts a long time. You can make it play crazy music or just shake. It’s hilarious to watch him play with it. It’s very chew resistant, and believe me, he tries his best to destroy it.
If you have a high energy dog, they’re gonna love it.

Great toy for puppies!
Color: Turtle
I love this turtle. My toy poodle puppy has boundless energy. She loves this thing. It keeps her busy so I can get laundry and other things done. I am buying a second one for when the first one loses its charge😂

It broke within the week
Color: Turtle
The toy was ADORABLE, it worked very well for the first week. And then it broke. I bought two for my puppy and my 8 year old shih tzus. It stopped vibrating and just made loud grinding and squeaking noises. I would recommend this toy if it lasted longer.

Offers tons of activity
Color: Turtle
My 70lb dog LOVES this turtle toy, was worth the price. He will play and play until he’s exhausted. We have to give him breaks from it. We use the second setting which is just for movement, no music. The only aspect I don’t like is that he will inadvertently press the button when he’s biting the toy, changing the setting and sometimes has turned it off. The velcro is super strong, which is good but makes it difficult to open. Battery life is decent, lasted a few days with him playing with it an hour or so each evening. I like the auto shut off after 30 minutes of no movement.

Great toy for a dog who is not afraid of noises
Color: Crab
My puppy loves this thing! She was confused at first but now she plays with it daily. I just let it jump and sing the first time. She looked at it with the cutest head tilt. It is a bit loud so if you have a dog that's scared of noises this might be the right toy. Now when she picks it up, I turn it on and she gets so excited! The different songs make the toy less annoying for me, lol. Honestly, anything to tire out a 4 month old puppy. She is very entertaining to watch.
