BRILLIANT

I read anything about Malcolm X I can get my hands on; he still lives in my heart. This book is extremely well written w/a broad scope. This one will never leave my library. A must.

Good Book.

Karl Evanzz does a wonderful job putting together this book. I found out information about the NOI that I was unaware of. For example, the murders that were committed by some of their members even after Malcolm X was assassinated. Mr. Evanzz also did a good job showing the CIA and FBI's involvement in Malcolm's life and affairs. Furthermore, he shows their role in the elimination of African revolutionary leaders. This book also has great references and an outstanding bibliography. Fantastic book.

Excellent Book!!

If you really want to understand Malcolm X, the NOI and all the events between the two this is the book to read.

If you think you know about Malcolm X read this Book.

This book is so well written, it, should be taught in high schools to teach teenagers about investigative reporting. Evanzz brings it all together the Nation of Islam, Elijah Muhammed, the FBI, Malcolm X, and the world at his death into the middle of your heart. You will never forget a single fact or surprising circumstance. A must read.

The only book I read all the way through,since high school;)

To idolize Malcolm X, and to see his fight and struggle on both sides, really open my eyes to alot of his pain. I felt for him.
