Signed and inscribed by author on front free endpaper: "Nov. 21, 1988 To Mrs. J.R. Rudolph Brotherly Love! Alex Haley" and on the IFC "12 1988 — To Mrs. Rudolph — Happy Holidays! Love — Dara R. Merlin". Looks to me like a student had Alex Haley sign the book as a holiday gift for a favorite teacher or mentor. A special copy (see photos).
