James Baldwin is simply a great writer
I've profited from everything I've read by James Baldwin. I can't say I 'enjoyed' his books or that I was entertained. I was challenged, informed, touched, hurt, shamed, etc. For an old white man who grew up in the south reading James Baldwin is an education. He is a great American voice and should be read by everyone.

James Baldwin's genius, all in one volume!
I love the fact that you can purchase all of James Baldwin's classic material all in one book! This is an excellent collection and this is also a great product for anybody who is being introduced to this great man's work!

Rounding out my collection
Third of three volumes; These three NAL volumes plus The Price of the Ticket should keep me busy for a while on Baldwin.

The Library of America Hardback edition books are great value: They normally contain a number of stories by the author; sometimes essays; and sometimes autobiographies. They have quality binding, with acid free paper, and offer work by a number of very important writers. Along with the Everyman's Library Classics Editions - they are my favourite book editions.
