I believe the book may be out of print.

Did you check with Olcott library? They may have a copy you may be able 
to borrow.

If any one can locate a copy it would be JHE.

It is a very interesting book.

The title was chosen to signify the comparison between K and other 
leaders. Surely I have not seen anyone of his popularity since he started 
speaking. Last time when he came to San Antonio, there were over 2000 who 
came to hear him. It was a long time ago.

If everything else fails, please contact me.
