"A groundbreaking study. . . . This is the best, most thorough
account we have of Malcolm X as a religious leader." -"Publishers
Weekly",
"Effectively conveys Malcolm's evolving spirituality and why it was
arguably as central to his life as his far better known activist
concerns."-" Historical Review",
"The first significant account of Malcolm X's religious life. This
readable book . . . should appeal to those who enjoyed Malcolm's
autobiography. Highly recommended."-"Choice",
"The only book exclusively devoted to Malcolm's religious life. . .
. DeCaro's discussion of Malcolm's activities as a Black Muslim is
interesting and thorough. . . . Adds important chapters on Malcolm
as religious apologist, as Black Muslim apostate, as convert to
orthodox Islam, and as religious revolutionist."-"Journal of
American History",
"Will surely find its way onto every short list of indispensable
sources for understanding the life and work of Malcolm X. . . . It
will deepen both the popular and scholarly understanding of Malcolm
X and his contribution to the unfinished work of human
liberation."-"Booklist",
