Garden City: Doubleday, 1976. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. First edition. One corner bumped, near fine in a very good dustwrapper with some modest age-toning and some tears and chips. A groundbreaking book which pioneered mainstream interest in African-American antecedents and culture. The landmark television dramatization was watched by over 100 million people and remains a highpoint in the medium's history. *Roots* was awarded a special Pulitzer Prize in 1977 and it remains a key testament to the scope of the African-American experience.
