Run Baby Run

This paperback edition of "Run Baby Run" shows considerable wear. The cover is creased with edge wear, and the spine has visible damage, but the binding remains intact. The pages are yellowed, consistent with age, but free from inscriptions or library markings. There is no dust jacket, as typical for this format.

"Run Baby Run" by Nicky Cruz, co-authored with Jamie Buckingham, is a gripping memoir published by Jove Books in New York. This specific copy is the fourth printing from September 1982. The book recounts the dramatic life of Nicky Cruz, a former gang leader in New York City who turned his life around through conversion to Christianity. This edition, published fourteen years after its original release, captures the enduring appeal of Cruz's story, which has sold nearly two million copies. The book is a significant work in the genres of biography and memoir, offering insights into gang life and personal transformation. The physical condition shows wear typical for a paperback of its age, with notable creasing and edge wear. Despite these flaws, the integrity of the text is maintained, making it a valuable addition to collections focused on urban life narratives and religious conversion stories.
