@VaylLarkinPoet I don't know any details about this book but a quick search found this link at Barnes & Noble:
https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/roots-alex-haley/1100154541
I looked at a couple of local bookstores and found only used copies. It looks like Annie Blooms does sell new copies but it's currently backordered:

Hope this is helpful info!

I feel as though I'm going mad, but this is the world we live in so: Can someone please tell me that #Roots by #AlexHaley is still in print? I'm not finding new copies of it for sale, for some reason. I can get older editions used, I know. Any leads/obvious things I'm overlooking? (I'm not overlooking the racism that could leave such important work unmaintained, but I'm desperately hoping against hope).

January 24, 1977 - The TV mini-series ''Roots,'' based on the Alex Haley novel, began airing on ABC.
The story followed an African sold into slavery, and his family’s history through emancipation. It won numerous awards and drew an enormous and broad-based audience (third-highest Nielsen ratings ever for its final episode). 85 percent of all Americans watched at least some part of the series.

There are several iconic works that I find myself compelled to revisit at this time of year. I first read The Autobiography of #MalcolmX: As Told to #AlexHaley when I was 14, and it changed my life. "By any means necessary" resonated more with me than "We shall overcome" as I observed the injustices around me. And the #BPP's "Power to the People" — a phrase I first encountered via #PublicEnemy, lead me to want to learn more about #BobbySeale, #HueyNewton, and the Party...
