The book follows in the tradition of C. Eric Lincoln's The Black Muslims in America which first introduced the Nation of Islam, Elijah Muhammad and Malcolm X into the American consciousness.
The Lost-Found Nation of Islam in America spans the history of the organization, while also covering its most recent milestones and benchmarks such as the emergence of Louis Farrakhan as a world leader; the International Saviours' Day Conference of 1994 in Accra, Ghana, and the Million Man March in 1995.
Dr. Marsh is also author to Journey to Shanara: a Love Story and a Proposal to Freedom, a book of poetry which was reviewed as "an exciting volume of personal, racial, Black nationalist, American, universal, and interplanetary poetry" by the Los Angeles Sentinel in their August 22, 1974 edition.
In addition to this, main topics in the work include the celebration of "music, love, and women."
This work is further described by the newspaper as an example of "New Black Poetry", as Marsh writes in polyrhythmic free verse similar to rapping which purposefully ignores the conventions of formal English.
