In 1971, it published the "Senator Gravel edition" of "The Pentagon Papers" for the first time in book form, when no other publisher was willing to risk publishing such controversial material. Robert West, then-president of the Unitarian Universalist Association, approved the decision to publish "The Pentagon Papers", which West claims resulted in two-and-a-half years of harassment and intimidation by the Nixon administration. In "Gravel v. United States", the Supreme Court decided that the Constitution's "Speech or Debate Clause" protected Gravel and some acts of his aide, but not Beacon Press. Beacon Press seeks to publish works that "affirm and promote" several principles: Beacon Press is a member of the Association of American University Presses. Beacon Press publishes non-fiction, fiction, and poetry titles. Some of Beacon's best-known titles are listed below. In 2009, Beacon Press announced a new partnership with the Estate of Martin Luther King Jr. for a new publishing program, "The King Legacy." As part of the program, Beacon is printing new editions of previously published King titles and compiling Dr. King's writings, sermons, orations, lectures, and prayers into entirely new editions, including new introductions by leading scholars. Beacon Press launched its blog, "Beacon Broadside", in late September 2007. In 1992, Beacon won a New England Book Award for publishing. In 1993, Beacon was voted "Trade Publisher of the Year" by the Literary Market Place.
