The Last Year of Malcolm X: The Evolution of a Revolutionary

170pp, with illustrated frontispiece.  Illustrated stiff card covers.  8vo. Covers are tatty, rubbed all round edges and shelf worn.  A little toning to text block edges, mildly affecting extreme page margins, some dog-eared corners and sings of handling throughout but clean, complete tight.  A good working/reference copy. Adapted from the blurb on the back of the book: 'Written by the editor of the three volumes of Malcolm X's speeches, this is a full-scale study of Malcolm X's political development after he left the Nation of Islam.  It analyses the split between Malcolm X and Elliah Mohammed, the evolution of his views on organising the black community, on making alliances, and on questions of separation and black nationalism.  The appendix contains the programmatic statement of the Organisation of Afro-American Unity, founded by Malcolm X shortly before his death.
