Think the Autobiography of Malcolm X was actually ghost written by Alex Haley.
Have added the John Huston book to my wish list.
Thanks
Chris,
I have heard that as well about the Malcolm X book.
I think you'll really like the John Huston book. It's well-written and fascinating.

Just recall the story of Huston asked the girl he was living with to place a bet on a dog. She didn't do it and when he got home and found out - just packed his bag and was done wit her.
Chris,
There is a memorable paragraph in the book in which he describes his former wives.
He must have paid a lot of alimony.
Michael
