Nothing new here.
Very little accounting of signing up the negro soldiers. There are no stories of meeting them, their appearance, their discussions of being a slave, their beliefs or hopes, etc. His account of Lincolns murder and how sad and scared people were helps us understand the continued dis-loyalty between the North/South. If a southern like Booth still hated the north so highly that he killed our President, then why should the North have pity on the secessionists?

Hard Day's Night
Easy to see why Beatlemania swept the world and still influences todays music and videos. It's all here in black and white. Watch the movie with subtitles to fully hear what is said. The under breath comments were often ad libbed and then kept in the final cut. The actors reviews also show the love people felt when in the Beatles company. You wanted to be them.

Great pictures is it
4 of 4 found this helpful It's suppose to be a photo biography and that is it. It has great back stage photos and a list of all his shows, but very little background or history. Maybe a 20 word description at most. There are few off stage photos and no written information. Keith Richards bio is much more interesting and informational. Jimmy kept his secrets hidden. This is not a book to find the 'dirty details' of groupies, sex, drugs or rock-n-roll. It chronicles Jimmy's look and who he played with and when. There is no inside information on guitar playing chords, amp set-ups, guitar preferences, interaction with Plant, Jones or Bonham etc. It's a coffee table size photo history of his looks and where he performed. He's still my favorite guitarist of all time even though this book gives little insight into his thoughts.
