The Measure of a Man
I found this book to be very enlightening and thought provoking. It made you reflect on your spiritual self. I saw a different side of the celebrity and marveled at his humble beginnings. I was also impressed with his love and respect for his parents. I gained a greater appreciation of my parents.

Awesome Read
I bought this for my uncle's birthday and he said it is an awesome read. Some of things, people, and places mentioned in the book, brought back some great memories, as we are Bahamians as well.

Measure
I bought this book for my fiancée and he loved it. It is a great read. He said it was beautifully written. Personally I have been a great fan of Mr. Poitier. I collect his movies, so acquiring this book was awesome for me. When he returns the book to me I will read it also. I whole heartedly recommend this fine work of art.

Fabulous
I absolutely loved this book, Mr. Poiter shares my views on spirituality and I was very excited to see my feelings on paper, especially being written by Sidney Poiter! I have always felt that he was a special person, and after having endured the spirit breaking forces he dealt with, he still remains triumphant.
