"A must-read for any Doors fan...chock full of spicy revelations, bittersweet memories and an exhaustive inquiry into Morrison's bizarre demise."--Los Angeles Times
Poet, rock star, philosopher, shaman: Jim Morrison, lead singer of The Doors, was all these-and more. In the midst of the turbulent 1960s, this uncompromising, unique artist burst onto the music scene like a force of nature. Here is the definitive biography of a compelling, tormented, brilliant man, written by noted rock writer Jerry Hopkins (author of the first-ever Elvis bio in 1971) and Daniel Sugarman, a journalist and intimate of the band. In depth, and with photographs, it traces the life of the charismatic Morrison from his birth in 1943 in Florida to his rise to fame in LA to his mysterious death in Paris, and all the tumultuous years in between.
