No other book about Malcolm X offers such enlightenment on the man who was not just a great leader, but a beloved brother, cousin, nephew, uncle, father, husband, and friend. As politically relevant today as he was during his lifetime, Malcolm X also remains a controversial figure alternately mythologized and misunderstood. Seventh Child also provides remarkable details about Malcolm's family genealogy previously unavailable to the general public, and rare family photos. As informative as it is intimate, Seventh Child adds immeasurably to our knowledge of this complex and extraordinary figure.
