In “King: A Life,” Eig drew on recently declassified White House telephone transcripts and FBI files to create a portrait of Martin Luther King Jr. The Pulitzer committee called it “revelatory,” drawing on new sources to enrich our understanding of the man. Other King biographers have described it as “the new definitive narrative.”
