Amazing, despite some of the criticism Alex Haley recieved for this book, it remains a classic, simply an inspiring story of a modern times hero.

    Really great book. I loved the contribution from Alex Haley at the end. It really helped me to put things in perspective. You get very sucked in to Malcolm X's views. He is frustrating most of the time, but nearly always intuitive and passionate. His closed-mindedness irritated me so much - lots of dissonance and contradiction. But the changes in his thought-process, his eventual willingness to learn and change and his honesty leave one with admiration.
