Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. Here is the 1992 Dell Paperback Reprint of "Soul on Ice", the famous autobiography by Eldridge Cleaver. The book has a Preface by Ishmael Reed. This is the February 1992 Second Printing. From the book's blurb, on the rear cover : "The searingly honest memoirs of Eldridge Cleaver shocked, outraged, and ultimately changed the way America looked at the Civil Rights Movement and at the Black experience. Today this book remains a testament to Cleaver's intelligence, insightfulness, and place in American history. " Said Shane Stevens of 'The Progressive' : "As with Malcolm X, Cleaver's book is a spiritual autobiography, an odyssey of a soul in search of itself, groping toward a personal humanism which will give meaning to life. The book is important - The book is extraordinary!"
