Description
North Hollywood: Leisure Books, 1971. First Edition. First Printing, a paperback original. Octavo (17.5cm); photo-illustrated wrappers; yellow edge-staining; [8],9-224pp. Trivial wear to extremities, gentle sunning to spine, with some faint foxing to upper edge of textblock, and the usual tanning to the text edges; Very Good+. Hastily-written, pseudonymous volume on Davis, repeating "every right wing assertion about Ms. Davis being a black terrorist that had ever been issued. The following year, a month after she was found not guilty of providing the guns used by Jonathan Jackson in August 1970 to take hostages from a courtroom, Charles Ashman produced an instant paperback book The People vs. Angela Davis, which he attempted to peddle to the African-American community. Ashman revealed that he was "The Professor," claiming that he was forced to use that pseudonym for safety. He contends militant blacks surrounding Angela would retaliate against any "honkie" they caught writing about her" (Major, Reginald. "Stealth History: A Political Process. A Review Essay of The Shadow of the Panther by Hugh Pearson and The Rise and Fall of California's Radical Prison Movement by Eric Cummins" in The Black Scholar, Vol.24, No.4 (Fall 1994), p.39).
