manarnia's review against another edition
challenging
informative
slow-paced
4.25
Overall, I think this is a fairly comprehensive and good biography of Malcolm X, and I'm glad that I read it. However, it is very long and dense, and I did not always agree with the author's conclusions. Still, I would definitely recommend this biography to anyone who wants a detailed look at Malcolm X's life.
