Room Full of Mirrors

It has been more than thirty-five years since Jimi Hendrix died, but his music and spirit are still very much alive for his fans everywhere. Charles R. Cross vividly recounts the life of Hendrix, from his difficult childhood and adolescence in Seattle through his incredible rise to celebrity in London's swinging sixties. It is the story of an outrageous life--with legendary tales of sex, drugs, and excess--while it also reveals a man who struggled to accept his role as idol and who privately craved the kind of normal family life he never had. Using never-before-seen documents and private letters, and based on hundreds of interviews with those who knew Hendrix--many of whom had never before agreed to be interviewed--Room Full of Mirrors unlocks the vast mystery of one of music's most enduring legends.

Come As You Are

Can we alter our dreams and stories from the past to create a better future for our children? Zane and Skye are two misfit teens drawn together by their love of music and their loneliness, both part of Seattle’s grunge scene in the early ’90s. They dream of moving to LA together, Zane’s music career following the trajectory of Kurt Cobain and Eddie Vedder, and Skye drawing Picasso-esque portraits on the Venice Beach boardwalk. When a tragedy violently catapults them from best friends to lovers, their bond is forever strengthened and their relationship destroyed. Ten years later, they must come together as parents, putting aside abandoned dreams and broken promises. The question is, can they face the truth of who they are and become the parents their daughter needs them to be?

Led Zeppelin retain one of the biggest followings of any band on the planet, even though it is decades since they were still together, touring and recording. Their one-off reunion at the O2 a couple of years ago was the hot gig ticket of the decade, and confirmed by those lucky enough to be there as the greatest gig they’d ever seen. The simultaneous Mothership CD reissue of their greatest hits reinforced the massive explosion of interest in them. This illustrated biography of the band – by top Hendrix and Kurt Cobain biographer Charles Cross – is a visually stunning record of the band’s tumultuous career: epic live photos, counterpointed by an informed, lively and trenchant text – and complemented by a rich range of facsimile memorabilia: set lists, concert posters, backstage passes. In the archaeology of rock music Led Zeppelin’s American tours of the early seventies, and their final giant Knebworth gig in 1975, have entered legend for their grandiosity, excess and sheer elemental force. They are fully commemorated in this volume, which every Led Zep aficionado will need to have.

One Blood

One Blood traces both the life of the famous black surgeon and blood plasma pioneer Dr. Charles Drew and the well-known legend about his death. On April 1, 1950, Drew died after an auto accident in rural North Carolina. Within hours, rumors spread: the man who helped create the first American Red Cross blood bank had bled to death because a whites-only hospital refused to treat him. Drew was in fact treated in the emergency room of the small, segregated Alamance General Hospital. Two white surgeons worked hard to save him, but he died after about an hour. In her compelling chronicle of Drew's life and death, Spencie Love shows that in a generic sense, the Drew legend is true: throughout the ...
