Here is Jim Morrison in all his complexity-singer, philosopher, poet, delinquent-the brilliant, charismatic, and obsessed seeker who rejected authority in any form, the explorer who probed "the bounds of reality to see what would happen..." Seven years in the writing, this definitive biography is the work of two men whose empathy and experience with Jim Morrison uniquely prepared them to recount this modern tragedy: Jerry Hopkins, whose famous Presley biography, Elvis, was inspired by Morrison's suggestion, and Danny Sugerman, confidant of and aide to the Doors. With an afterword by Michael McClure.
Jerry Hopkins originally wrote The Hula in 1982. He has written 36 books in all, including the bestselling Jim Morrison biography No One Here Gets Out Alive (#1, New York Times); Elvis In Hawai'i; and Don Ho: My Music, My Life. A longtime editor of Rolling Stone, he lived in Hawai'i from 1976 to 1993 and now resides in Thailand.
